These ground turkey burgers are delicious! Serve on a bun with your preferred toppings, such as barbecue sauce, which is how I prefer it.

- Heat a large skillet over medium heat; cook the turkey patties in the skillet until cooked through and no longer pink the center, 7 to 10 minutes per side. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the center of a patty should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

Loved these! I’m really picky when it comes to turkey burgers and these were great. The beans give them a bit of odd texture but still good.
I love this recipe, but I did make changes. I tripled the recipe (I have teenagers). I mashed the beans, I didn’t use the red pepper and used minced garlic over powder. I also chose to bake them at 400 for 20-25 minutes. For turkey burgers, these are so juicy! My family gobbles them up!
Yummo
Love these, we add bean and tons of cheese
My red meat loving hubby and son love these burgers. I use pimento instead of peppers as I don’t care for the crispness of the pepper. I also substitute pepperjack for the mozzarella. While we won’t be giving up the good ‘ol black angus, these are a great alternative.
Very tasty…so much lighter and healthier than a beef burger! I used the entire can of black beans because my pack of turkey was 1-1/4lb. I did not use the bell pepper, I added some dried minced onion, I also added about 3/4 teaspoon of cumin, I forgot the garlic powder but did not miss it. I mashed the beans with fork before mixing everything up. I cooked the burgers on a nonstick griddle with a little olive oil. The burgers were sticky to handle, but were easy to flip once they cooked a while. I made 6 burgers with this recipe…make sure you flatten them when you put them on the pan, as they will puff up a little when cooking. If you don’t want them too big, make more patties because the ground turkey hardly shrinks at all.
these are TRULY YUMMY and your family and friends won’t know that it’s trukey?
I used green bell peppers instead of red. Seasoned the burgers to taste with the garlic, salt and black pepper while cooking them in the skillet. Smelled real good and taste good aswell. My wife was sort of cautious of the ground turkey instead of beef, but it worked out real well.
I loved this recipe! I made a variation though, added some chopped onion, didnt use the egg, and mashed the black beans some to hold it all together better. Yum!
The black beans just gave it a weird texture. Everything else was fine. I was a little confused by the name. Stuffed to me means inside and the cheese is just mixed in.
This recipe was just okay. I added chopped garlic instead of garlic powder and used a bit of cooking spray on the pans. I should have used more…the bottoms burn quickly. Definitely eat with lots of barbecue sauce. Some avocado bits also make a pretty good topping.
I made this tonight for my husband and daughter. The taste was good but next time I will grind the beans before adding to turkey and I will add oil to the skillet.
