Turkey Patties

For lean burgers, chose ground sirloin (around 90 percent lean meat/10 percent fat). Leaner ground beef tends to make dry burgers. When using higher-fat meats such as ground lamb or pork, add an equal amount of ground turkey breast to make the overall burger leaner. Turkey is quite mild, so the flavor of the lamb or pork still comes through. Source: Healthy Ezine of the Week
