For a fresh take on a burger, give these turkey burgers a try!

These delicious burgers can be made traditionally, as sliders or served on romaine or Bibb lettuce for a low-carb option. The pan-seared apple slices paired with BBQ sauce provide the perfect flavor to complement these deliciously baked burgers.

Can I prep these ahead?

Yes, follow the prep instructions (stop just before baking). Stack each burger between parchment paper, store in an airtight container and refrigerate overnight. Remove from fridge and cook.

Can I freeze the turkey burger patties?

Yep, cooked or uncooked, these burgers freeze well for up to 3 months.

• Freezing cooked patties: Remove cooked patties from heat, prior to adding cheese. Allow to cool completely and freeze in an airtight container for a quick and easy dinner in the future. Thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat cooked burgers to your liking.
• Freezing raw patties: Stack each burger between parchment paper and freeze in an airtight container.

Ways to reinvent your leftovers:

• In a grilled wrap with pickles, sprouts, mustard and Swiss
• On Taco Tuesday—just crumble the leftover burger meat in tacos, a quesadilla or on a taco salad
• Mixed in with shell pasta, a little cheddar and cottage cheese for a savory side dish
• In FfL’s California Burger Bowl
• In a stuffed pepper
• Mixed in with scrambled eggs (add crumbled meat and salsa just before the eggs are completely cooked) and serve with avocado toast for a well-rounded breakfast
• Crumbled on top of a BBQ and cheese bagel pizza
