Matt's Turkey Burgers

My friend Nicole's husband, Matt is a great cook. So when he was waxing poetic about his turkey burgers I knew I had to get the recipe! This is a delicious change from my regular turkey burgers - the mayo and Dijon add a creaminess and bind the burgers together without an egg or bread crumbs; and the other spices all work together to create a great flavor. Matt recommends serving them with crumbled blue cheese melted on top (which we did) and grilled red onion. Yum!

We liked these so much we had them twice in one week! The first time I served them with sweet potato fries and sesame spinach salad and the second time I served them with cole slaw and sauteed zucchini and tomatoes.

Matt's Turkey Burgers
from Matt of Ingredients for a Wonderful Life
Makes 4 burgers

1 package lean ground turkey (about 1.25-1.33 pounds)
2 tablespoons mayo
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 dashes Worcestershire sauce
splash of soy sauce
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder (I used chili powder)
2 teaspoons salt (I would recommend 1 teaspoon)
1 teaspoon pepper

Combine all ingredients and form into 4 patties. Grill over medium heat, about 4-5 minutes each side, flipping only once until meat is no longer pink in the middle.
