With the frequency of grilling slowing down now that the weather is changing, I thought it timely to try a little variation on our usual burger. And, since it's Thanksgiving (Canadian), I figured also a good time to try a little turkey, maybe inspire some folks to try somthing a little different!
This time I came up with what we've called the "P Double B Turkey Burger"...read on to see what the P and B's are!
1 lb ground turkey
1/3 cup panko/dried bread crumbs
1 egg
1/4 cup basil (fresh) - chopped
3 slices bacon, cooked (crispy)
1/3 cup parmesan cheese (fresh, grated)
Pepper - to taste
Cook your bacon, remove from pan, pat with paper towel and allow to cool.
In a large bowl, mix the turkey, panko, egg, basil, parmesan and pepper. Use your hands, get in there and mix it good! Crumble the bacon and mix into the turkey mixture. Form patties.
Preheat your grill. When you are ready to put your patties on the grill, be sure to oil them with a little olive oil (on each side). Grill, and serve!
VERDICT:
These were a nice change from beef! I am a beef fan, but every once in a while it's nice to shake things up. We could really taste all the flavours - the parmesan, the basil, and of course, the bacon! (P...double B).

Thanks for sharing on Thursdays Treasures. The name is so cute and the burger looks fantastic.
ReplyDeleteLove the change in burger ingredients. I too get tired of the same old burger but my hubby would NOT be happy if I changed them. I just might have to make two kinds next time. Thanks so much for linking up to Creative Thursday. Can’t wait to see what you share this week! Have a wonderful week.
