In a large bowl:
1/2 c breadcrumbs or crushed Club/ Ritz crackers
1/2 c oatmeal
1 egg
1 Tbsp parsley
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
Add:
3 lbs ground turkey
Mix just until combined. It will be soft.
Line a large tray with a silicone baking mat or parchment.
Form patties by flattening a spoonful (about 1/3 c) of mixture onto a silicone baking mat or parchment paper. Make them thin. Pat sides to form a nice round burger.
Place tray of burgers in the freezer. When frozen, place burgers in a freezer bag.
When ready to cook, no need to thaw. They are easier to handle frozen.
Add a little oil to a pan.
Fry on medium, 4-5 minutes per side or until thoroughly cooked.
Pile on your favorite toppings.
Makes 24 burgers
NOTES:
