Steps:
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil the grate.
- Knead together the ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, parsley, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Form the mixture into 8 equal-sized balls; flatten to make thin patties. Place about 1/4 cup of feta cheese onto each of four of the patties. Top each of the patties with cheese with one of the patties without; press the edges together to seal the cheese into the center.
- Cook on the preheated grill until the burgers are cooked to your desired degree of doneness, 7 to 8 minutes per side for well done. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

FETA-STUFFED JUICY LUCY TURKEY BURGERS
Ground turkey burgers get a bad rap for being a little bit boring. But when dressed up with flavors of the Mediterranean like olives, capers, garlic and dill, and then stuffed with salty and tangy feta cheese, they become anything but. To maximize the flavor we made a quick tzatziki sauce and slathered it over toasted sesame buns, then topped the burgers with fresh tomato slices and crunchy spinach.

Steps:
- For the tzatziki sauce: Mix the yogurt, dill, cucumber, garlic, lemon juice, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- For the turkey burgers: Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates with vegetable oil.
- Mix the ground turkey, olives, dill, capers, oregano, garlic, lemon zest, 2 teaspoons salt and a generous amount of pepper in a large bowl until well combined. Divide the mixture into 4 equal balls (about 6 ounces each). Working with one ball at a time, divide it in half and flatten to make 2 patties, each about 4 1/2 inches in diameter. Spoon 1 tablespoon of feta into the middle of one of the patties, leaving about a 1-inch border. Top with the other patty and press the meat together very tightly, forming a large patty shape with the cheese secured inside. (If needed, refrigerate the patties if you notice they are becoming a little malleable and too soft to work with while you build the remaining burgers). Repeat with the remaining balls and cheese. (At this point, you can freeze the burgers, wrapped tightly in plastic wrap and placed inside a freezer bag, for up to 3 months.) Thaw in the refrigerator before cooking.)
- Grill the burgers, flipping once, until golden grill marks have formed, the meat is no longer pink on the top and an instant-read thermometer registers 165 degrees F, 5 to 6 minutes per side.
- Meanwhile, split the buns open and brush both sides with the olive oil. With about 2 minutes of burger cooking time left, toast the buns on the grill until golden and a few grill marks have formed, about 2 minutes.
- Spread about 2 tablespoons of the tzatziki sauce onto both halves of each bun. Layer each bottom bun half with a burger patty, 2 tomato slices, some red onion slices and iceberg leaves and the top bun half.
FETA CHEESE TURKEY BURGERS

CHEDDAR-STUFFED TURKEY BURGER WITH AVOCADO
The secret to keeping lean turkey juicy as a burger? Adding fat. The burgers in this recipe, stuffed with cheese and a bit of butter, are moist, flavorful and, best of all, hold together and flip easily. These are best cooked on a flat-top griddle, burger-joint style, or you can use a large, wide skillet (like cast-iron) if that's what you have. Both give the outside of these burgers an irresistible sear that keeps the juice and flavor inside the burger, not dripping through grill grates. Finally, Hawaiian buns are a must. Their softness and subtle sweetness give these burgers a universal appeal.

Steps:
- Combine the turkey, salt, pepper and parsley in a large bowl and mix with a fork or clean hands to season evenly. Add the egg and milk and stir to combine.
- Divide the meat into four portions with damp hands and gently pack into four round patties, about 3/4-inch thick. (It will feel very sticky because of the egg, which helps burgers hold their shape as they cook.) Place burgers on a parchment-lined baking tray or plate. Cut the butter into slices and 1 slice of the cheese into 4 thin squares, about 1 inch across. (The butter and cheese should be the same size.) Press a piece of each into the center of each burger. Shape the meat around it to cover across the top. Refrigerate for 10 minutes while you prepare the griddle.
- Heat a flat-top griddle or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add enough butter just lightly coat the griddle or pan. Add the burgers to the griddle and cook until browned and just cooked through and a thermometer inserted into the meat (not the cheese in the center) reaches 165 degrees, about 4 minutes per side. In the final 2 minutes of cooking, add the remaining 4 cheese slices to the burgers, to melt.
- Remove the burgers from the heat and layer onto the buns with the avocado and any other burger toppings you desire. Serve warm.

SPINACH AND FETA TURKEY BURGERS
These are a big hit in the summertime when everyone is tired of the same old hamburgers and hot dogs. Serve with or without buns and your favorite condiments. I like to serve these with lettuce, tomato, and Tzatziki sauce (you can find recipes for that on this site as well).

Tips:
- For a crispy and golden brown crust on your turkey burgers, cook them over medium-high heat until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- To prevent the burgers from sticking to the grill, grease the grates with cooking spray or oil before cooking.
- If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check if the burgers are cooked through by cutting into one. The inside should be cooked through with no pink remaining.
- Serve the turkey burgers immediately on toasted buns with your favorite toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, onion, and tzatziki sauce.
- For a healthier version of the tzatziki sauce, use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream.
