Today’s recipe is a family favorite that I developed while we were in the strictest phase of the elimination diet. I’d put them up against any turkey burger anywhere. Yes, they’re that good. The leeks add a great flavor element. As you know from previous posts, leeks are one of my favorite unsung heroes of the vegetable world. Enjoy.
(Note: Shown served on kaiser roll topped with deep fried leeks.)
- 2 - 2 1/2 pounds ground turkey
- 1/2 cup leeks, chopped
- 2 teaspoons garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Combine all ingredients thoroughly.
- Form approximately 1/4-pound patties. Place on grill and grill approximately 7 to 8 minutes per side or until internal temperature reaches 170 degrees.
