    I've almost exclusively switched to ground turkey in lieu of ground beef for tacos, I love it!

    soy sauce to your liking
    sliced green onions (just the white parts)
    fresh grated ginger

    My favorite are Hungry Girl's Unique Greek Turkey Burgers.

    Ingredients:
    1/4 cup finely chopped onion
    1 tsp. chopped garlic
    4 cups chopped spinach leaves
    1 lb. raw lean ground turkey
    2 large egg whites or 1/4 cup liquid egg whites
    1/2 tsp. dried basil
    1/2 tsp. dried oregano
    1/4 tsp. salt
    1/4 tsp. black pepper
    1/2 cup crumbled fat-free feta cheese
    Optional: large lettuce leaves, sliced onion, sliced tomato

    Directions:
    Bring a large skillet sprayed with nonstick spray to medium-high heat on the stove. Add onion and garlic and, stirring often, cook until softened, about 4 minutes.

    Add spinach to the skillet with onion and garlic. Stirring often, cook until spinach has wilted and excess moisture has evaporated, 3 - 5 minutes.

    Remove skillet from heat. Once cool enough to handle, carefully blot away any excess moisture from the onion-spinach mixture with paper towels. Set aside.

    In a large bowl, combine turkey, egg whites, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Using your hands, mix well. Add cooked veggies and feta cheese to the bowl. Using your hands, mix until uniform.

    Evenly divide turkey mixture and firmly form into four patties. (Cover and refrigerate if not cooking immediately.)

    Bring a grill (or skillet or grill pan) sprayed with nonstick spray to medium heat. Add patties, cover, and cook for 5 - 8 minutes per side, until cooked through. If using a skillet or grill pan, work in batches, removing skillet or pan from heat between batches to re-spray. (And don't worry if your lid isn't a perfect fit when covering!)

    Eat your patties with a knife and fork or, if you like, wrap them up in some lettuce leaves with onion and tomato. Enjoy!

    MAKES 4 SERVINGS

    I use reduced fat feta instead of fat free and only 1 egg white. I find 2 makes it far too moist and sticky.

    Ground turkey (I buy turkey breast and ground it myself)
    Onion - chopped
    Garlic - diced
    Tomato paste
    Boiled spinach - chopped
    Parmezan - grated (just for flavor)
    Egg and flour to make the composition stick
    Condiments

    I just mix them up (the proportion may vary, sometimes I like to add more veggies to it), make patties and that's it.

    I grill them.

    My last batch had 235 calories, 16 carbs, 9 fat, 25 protein for 175g of hamburger.
