Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine lean ground turkey, whole wheat breadcrumbs, egg white, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt.

Step 2

Mix the ingredients thoroughly with your hands or a spatula until well combined.

Step 3

Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into burger patties.

Step 4

Preheat a non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and lightly coat it with olive oil cooking spray.

Step 5

Place the turkey patties on the skillet or grill pan and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and no longer pink in the center.

Step 6

While the burgers are cooking, split the whole wheat burger buns and lightly toast them on the grill pan or separate toaster.

Step 7

Once the burgers are cooked, assemble each by placing a turkey patty on the bottom half of a toasted bun.

Step 8

Top each patty with lettuce leaf, tomato slice, and thinly sliced red onion.

Step 9

Add a small dollop of mustard or ketchup if desired.

Step 10

Finish assembling by placing the top half of the bun over the toppings and serve immediately.
