Delicious and Easy Turkey Burger Recipe (50/50 Turkey/Ground Beef Mix)

Inside: Learn how to make a healthier burger recipe that doesn’t sacrifice flavor. This recipe combines 50% turkey with 50% ground beef for a juicy, flavorful, and better for you burger that you will love. 

 

During the summer months, we try to grill as often as we can. Even when the summer has passed though, we like to make burgers inside the house. It is important to me to make sure that we are eating as healthy as possible, which is why I like to come up with recipes that include better ingredients. 

Although we often enjoy a full ground beef burger, like these ones, we have also grown to love this 50% beef, 50% turkey burger that I am sharing today. 

I find that when I combined ground beef with ground turkey, the flavor is better, but it is healthier as well. I also like to include some fresh, chopped up onions, herbs, and spices to make it even better. 

How Do Make This Turkey Burger

To make this turkey burger, you will need the following ingredients:

• ground turkey
• ground beef
• spices such as cumin, paprika, salt and pepper
• chopped onions
• chopped cilantro (optional)

The process is pretty straightforward, you combine all of the ingredients and then form your own patties before cooking on the grill or the stove top. 

I like to serve the burger with lots of toppings like lettuce, tomato, bacon slices, avocado slices, and more. The sky is really the limit and you can add whatever you want! 

By adding ground beef as well, you will have a more juicy burger than a standard turkey burger, but you still get some of the benefit of using a leaner meat.
