Spinach Tomato Burgers Recipes

SPINACH TOMATO BURGERS

Steps:

• Combine first six ingredients. Add beef; mix lightly but thoroughly. Shape into four 1/2-in.-thick patties., Place burgers on an oiled grill rack or in a greased 15x10x1-in. pan. Grill, covered, over medium heat or broil 4-5 in. from heat until a thermometer reads 160°, 4-5 minutes per side. Grill buns, cut side down, over medium heat until toasted. Serve burgers on buns; top with spinach dip, tomatoes and lettuce.

SPINACH-ARTICHOKE BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill, grill pan or large non-stick skillet to medium-high. If using a grill pan or skillet, preheat the broiler.
• Place the ground turkey in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add the lemon zest, parmigiano-regiano, finely chopped garrlic, spinach, thyme, and a drizzle of olive oil (about 2 tablespoons), and combine. Form into 4 patties and cook the burgers until firm and cooked through, about 6 minutes on each side.
• If cooking the patties on a grill, place the bread alongside the patties, grill on both sides and remove. If using a grill pan or skillet, broil the bread on both sides until toasted. Rub the toasted bread with the remaining garlic. Place the bread on plates and top with a slice of tomato, then season the tomatoes with salt and pepper.
• In the last two minutes of the burgers' cooking time, divide the sliced artichokes evenly among the burgers, then cover each with 2 slices of provolone. If cooking on the grill, drop the lid to melt the cheese. If cooking on the stovetop, tent your grill pan or skillet with aluminum foil. Place a burger on top of each of the tomato slices and serve immediately.

SPINACH TURKEY BURGERS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the stuffing mix, broth, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper and half of the spinach (save remaining spinach for another use). Crumble turkey over mixture and mix well. Shape into four 3/4-in.-thick patties., Grill, uncovered, over medium-hot heat or broil 3-4 in. from the heat for 3-4 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 165° and juices run clear. Serve on buns with cheese, lettuce and tomato if desired.

GREEN BURGERS

Steps:

• Heat half the oil in a frying pan and gently fry the onions for about 10 mins until pale and soft, then leave to cool a little.
• Finely chop the spinach in a food processor and tip into a bowl. Add the cooled onion, breadcrumbs, nutmeg, cheddar and Parmesan, and mash together. Add the beaten egg, a little at a time (you may not need all of it), until the mixture holds together. Divide into eight (see tip below) and shape into fat burgers.
• Put the flour in a shallow bowl, season well and dip the burgers into the flour to coat. Store in a plastic container between layers of baking parchment. Either chill until ready to cook, or freeze.
• Heat the remaining oil in the frying pan and fry for about 5 mins each side until browned all over. Serve in the crusty rolls, with a couple of slices of tomato, ketchup and sweet potato fries on the side, if you like.

TURKEY BURGERS WITH SPINACH AND SUN DRIED TOMATO

Steps:

• Use a mini chopper to chop the sun dried tomatoes to desired consistancy. I used sun dried tomatoes in oil but drained as much of the oil as possible.
• Combine turkey meat, spinach, sun dried tomatoes, provolone, garlic powder & bread crumbs. Mix well like making meatballs and create into burger form.
• I cook on an electric stove at 400 degrees for 20 minutes on one side and then turn for another 10 minutes. Serve on seeded buns and top with Franks Red Hot sauce or eat as is.
