Green Burgers
Do Popeye proud with these tasty green burgers! I'm normally not a spinach fan, but these are seriously good. I promise you'll forget that you're casually sneaking in a bunch of veggies with this meal.
Burger Ingredients:
1 egg
1 lb ground chicken
1 cup gluten free breadcrumbs
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 lb frozen spinach
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Pepper and oregano to preference
Ingredients for Cooking:
~1/4 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon minced garlic
Directions:
Thaw frozen spinach, put in colander, and press out water for several minutes
Mix all ingredients except breadcrumbs in a large bowl by hand until well distributed
Add breadcrumbs and mix again
Put mixture in fridge for ~10 minutes before cooking
Pour slightly less than 1/4 cup of olive oil into a large skillet
Add 1 teaspoon minced garlic to oil in skillet
Make 6-8 burger patties and cook in skillet with lid on over medium heat
Cook for about 7-8 minutes on each side, or until brown
Enjoy!
You can use ground turkey in place of chicken in this recipe if you want, but I personally prefer chicken in this. I also usually eat these with ketchup & mustard and no bun, but you can eat them on a bun if preferred.
