Ingredients
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 1 count large egg
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 12 count slider buns
- 6 slices American cheese
- 1 lb frozen tater tots
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
Steps
- Bake the tater tots as the bag directs.
- Mix the turkey, egg, panko, onion powder, paprika and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Shape 12 small, thin patties.
- Cook in a lightly oiled skillet over medium-high heat 3 minutes per side until they reach 165°F; top each with half a cheese slice for the last minute.
- Tuck into the buns with ketchup and serve with tots.
- Picky eater tip: serve a plain patty on a bun with just cheese, or on its own, with tots on the side.
- Make ahead: shape the patties up to a day ahead and keep them covered in the fridge, or cook them and reheat in the oven.
On the side: Roasted broccoli (15 min)
1 lb broccoli florets
- Heat the oven to 425°F. Toss the broccoli on a sheet pan with olive oil, salt and pepper.
- Roast 15 minutes, until the edges are browned.
