Good Thursday to you! The week is flying isn’t it? I didn’t plan on sharing this recipe, and certainly didn’t plan on photographing it, but after having these babies for lunch with my hubby, I knew I had to snap some pictures and share it with you!
A few years ago when I was enjoying cooking competitions, I competed in the Build A Better Burger Competition. Ever since that event, I have been in love with making fun burgers of all kinds. The burger I competed with in 2004 actually had feta and sun dried tomatoes in it, which is one of my favorite combinations now!
This turkey burger has minimal ingredients with massive flavor. My husband was all compliments while inhaling his sliders, and he has no problem telling me his honest opinion! I found these adorable mini hamburger buns at Trader Joes and seriously love them! I mean, they really are cute and are the exact shape of regular hamburger buns. Of course you can always use dinner rolls if you can’t seem to find this product 🙂
Hope you all enjoy my little sliders.
Here they are, mini hamburger buns. Maybe I’ve missed them in the past, but I don’t remember seeing these at Trader Joe’s before. Glad they have them.
I cooked these burgers right on the stove top in a large skillet. Was just too lazy to fire up the grill. By all means, grill them if you’d rather.
If you are a feta fan, beware…you could quite possibly eat many of these 🙂

Hey!
I just wanted to let you know that I’m a huge fan of your blog! I recreated these burgers and made a post on my blog about them. You can find it here: http://www.diyculinaryschool.com/2012/04/sundried-tomato-and-feta-turkey-burgers.html.
It’d be awesome if you had any tips or advice to make these better!
Its like you read my thoughts! You appear to know so much about this, like you wrote the ebook in it or something. I feel that you just can do with a few p.c. to drive the message home a little bit, however instead of that, this is fantastic blog. A fantastic read. I’ll certainly be back.
Could you subsitute basil for spinach? if so what ammounts
I was suggested this blog by way of my cousin. I am now not positive whether this put up is written by means of him as no one else recognise such unique about my trouble. You are amazing! Thank you!
You really make it appear so easy together with your presentation but I in finding this matter to be actually one thing which I think I would by no means understand. It seems too complicated and very large for me. I’m having a look forward to your subsequent publish, I will try to get the hold of it!
Loved this recipe, thank you! I adapted it a bit – I added basil, about equal to the spinach- and added a basil leaf to the buns, too. My husband and three boys (7, 10 & 13,) gobbled them down! Thanks again!
I wonder how these would turn out as regular sized burgers. We have about a lb of ground turkey ready to use…and this sounds AWESOME, I think I am going to try this!
(my friend linked me to your oreo-stuffed chocolate cookie recipe and now I can’t stop bookmarking your other recipes. It all sounds so good!!)
I have made them twice now and they are DELICIOUS!!!! To cut a little calories I used reduced fat feta and made sure I had ground turkey breast and they were very moist and wonderful morsels of goodness!! The nearest Trader Joe’s is an hour and a half away, so I used whole wheat dinner rolls once and Hawaiian bread dinner rolls…yummy! Thank you for this tasty recipe!
Hmmmm, could turkey mince be subsituted with chicken mince or beef mince. It’s difficult to get turkey mince in Australia. Thanks!
These were SO good. I made them earlier this week and they were scrumptious! I plan to feature them on my blog and link to you if that’s alright. I also made my own version that night, cheese stuffed, turkey burger sliders with bacon and avocado dressing/spread. Posted that this morning on the blog, so I plan to do yours on another day so it gets equal “face time”!
Delicious. Thanks for the recipe and the inspiration!
These are soooooo yummy!
Made these last night and OMG they were soooo delicious! I made these and my own creation…Cheese Stuffed Bacon Turkey Burger Sliders…Posting them tomorrow on my blog! Served Baked Sweet Potato Fries with garlic, fresh rosemary, salt, olive oil and so on with them. (also posted on my blog) SO GOOD!!!! Thank you for the recipe and the inspiration!
Delicious! Just made them and instead of garlic salt used minced garlic and they are lip-smacking great!
These look and sound amazing! I followed this recipe over from PW and cannot wait to try them. I’m a fairly new blogger and I loooove cooking and well anything food related so I am so very inspired by people like you, RecipeGirl and PW….
I saw your little sliders on PW and wanted to tell you your photography is stunning, absolutely drop dead gorgeous. I’ve never seen the little slider rolls. I will definitely keep my eye out for them.

So glad I found you – I made these sliders tonight and they were just awesome!! I am following you on Twitter and have bookmark this blog!!
🙂
i enjoy attending bridal showers coz there are lots of pretty ladies and it is enjoyable too`;*
That burger looks amazing! You should submit the recipe to the Recipe4Living Juiciest Burger Contest here!
I made these the other night and they were fantastic. I chopped up the spinach until it was pretty small .. and it added incredible moisture to the turkey (ground turkey can be dry). My kids ate two sliders each (love those slider rolls)!
I loved these burgers. I used my grill pan to cook them to save on the fat, and also put the spinach, feta and tomatoes through my mini chopper before adding them to the turkey. I also added some spinach to the mayo mixture. Great recipe, glad you decided to post it
