I am not used to cooking with ground turkey, so I was very pleased at how good this was. I also used the whole egg instead of the egg white. I served it with potato salad and pickles. My family really enjoyed this, so I will be making it again.

This was a very good recipe and the ricotta cheese made the burger very moist. The Dijon mustard added the right amount of flavor necessary where I did not need to add anything else. I will make this again for sure!!!!

First time we'd used ground turkey & we'll fix it again. Actually added jalapenos to the onions for a little spunk & served on halved boullios for a Mexican twist.

The combination of the turkey with the onions was great.. However I felt that the turkey itself had almost no flavor & came out dry. My husband loved them, I liked them... we'll try again & next time I'll have to do a little something to make the patties have more flavor.

Loved these turkey burgers! The ricotta made the burgers nice and moist- just be careful to cook long enough that it's cooked through but not overcooked. Mine had plenty of flavor but I do find a major difference in taste when using a different dijon mustard; pick one with a flavor you love! Perfect with a side salad.

It was a good starter recipe, but needed more flavor.

Needed a bit more flavor, and we're not sure if the ricotta cheese actually helped with texture, but it has potential. We would definitely add salt and pepper into the mix.

This is a decent open-faced sandwich, but it's not going to replace a patty melt if that's what you're craving. It's a little on the dry side. I served them with baked french fries and carrot sticks.

These are super yummy and go very well with a salad. Even my 12 year old loved them! Great recipe and much more cost effective than beef.

Made this for dinner, very tasty. Easy to make added a little more Worcestershire and whole egg instead of just white.

My boyfriend and I both liked this recipe. It was a good compromise because he loves hamburgers and I do not. I followed the recipe exactly and had no problems. I paired this with Cooking Light's baked zucchini chips. It was a fun meal.

The recipe was great ...We all love the Turkey Patty Melt recipe....What I didn't like watching the Video and whatching the cook, making the Patty Melts after pulling up her jacket sleeves and brushing her hair back without washing her hands...Very Nasty..

I made these last night and they were a hit with everyone, even a teenager! I made spicy baked sweet potato fries as a side.

I have made this several times now and my husband loves it! I make it exactly as written except we leave out the bread and just eat it as a patty with a side of sweet potato fries and a salad or green vegetable...Excellent recipe! For those who think it is too bland, just sprinkle with a little seasoned salt or seasoning of your choice...

I thought this recipe was very good. Did a couple things to change it up. Carmelized the onion, used entire egg vs. egg white, used italian bread crumbs instead of ricotta, added a sliced tomato and used horseradish cheddar instead of swiss. Very good for a week night easy meal. My husband liked it too.

Very disappointing. Very bland even after kicking it up a notch. Will not make again.

I made this for my husband tonight. He was diagnosed with high cholesterol and i am looking for interesting low fat recipes for him. He liked it. Would like me to add garlic and/or salt to the meat though for more flavor. He love the onions on top. This will become a regular recipe.

FAQs

What is patty melt sauce made of? ›

Many fast food and sit down restaurants serve burgers, fries, and patty melts with a "secret sauce". Secret sauce is usually a variation of thousand island dressing. The base is made with mayonnaise and ketchup, with other flavors added like mustard, paprika and garlic.

How to make turkey burger patties stick together? ›

Just like in a traditional meatloaf, you need something to hold the meat together. Try adding some dry breadcrumbs to the turkey mixture before you shape the patties. The crumbs will absorb the moisture and, together with the egg, will act like glue and help your burgers maintain their shape on the grill.

What is the best binder for turkey burgers? ›

While raw egg can be used to bind the burgers, mayonnaise does the trick while also adding an irreplacable dimension of creaminess, moisture, and flavor. When the patties cook, the mayo melts into the pockets of the meat to create a wonderfully juicy patty. Goodbye, dry turkey burgers.

Why are my turkey burgers falling apart? ›

The biggest problem with turkey meat as burgers on the grill is they don't have a lot of internal stickiness. That means they are more likely to fall apart than ground beef burgers. You can smush turkey burgers tightly together to make them stay in one piece, but it makes for a tougher burger.
