Easy Turkey Veggie Patties
Servings 12 small patties
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 egg
- 8 oz ground turkey
- 1 cup finely chopped veggies*
- 1 tsp ground cumin*
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp garlic powder or 1 clove garlic, minced or crushed**
- ½ tsp black pepper
- * Use cabbage, broccoli, bell pepper, kale, mushrooms, coleslaw mix, anything! Just make sure to finely chop it.
- ** I’m using cumin and garlic, but you could use whatever spices you like! Dried oregano, fennel, red pepper flakes, etc…would all work!
Items you can prep ahead (optional)
- Finely chop 1 cup veggies
- Make turkey patty mixture, form patties, and bake!
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450F or 425F convection. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drizzle the oil all over and use a brush or your fingers to spread it all around to coat.
- In a medium bowl, add the egg and whisk. Add turkey, veggies, cumin, salt, garlic, and pepper. Use your hands to mix to combine thoroughly.
- Form the turkey mixture into small mounds (about 1 heaping tablespoon, you should have about 12-15) and place onto the oiled sheet. Roll them around in the oil to coat on both sides (or use a brush), then flatten them slightly with your hands. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until browned on the bottom and cooked through.
