Burgers With cauliflower or carrot (Makes 8 Little Burgers, Serves 4)

Ingredients:

  • ½ pound lean ground turkey or sirloin
  • ½ cup gluten free breadcrumbs
  • ½ cup cauliflower or carrot puree
  • ¼ cup almond or coconut milk
  • 2 tbsp Bragg’s or wheat free Tamara soy sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1/8 tsp. pepper
  • Non-stick cooking spray
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 8 small whole grain or gluten free buns, for serving

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. In a large bowl, stir together the meat, breadcrumbs, vegetable puree, milk, soy sauce, garlic, and pepper with a wooden spoon; the mixture will be moist. Form it into 8 small patties and place them on a sheet of waxed paper or aluminum foil.
  3. Coat a large non-stick oven proof skillet with cooking spray and set it over medium-high heat. When the skillet is hot, add the oil. Add the burgers and cook until nicely browned on one side, 4 to5 minutes. Turn the burgers, then slide the skillet into the oven and bake for 4 to 5 minutes longer, until the burgers are no longer pink in the center. Serve each on a slit roll.
