 Directions

FOR THE TURKEY PATTIES
Add the meat to a large mixing bowl.
Gently fold in the olive oil, seasoning, garlic and the sun-dried tomatoes. Don’t over mix or your patties won’t be as tender. Form into 4 meat patties.
Refrigerate or freeze for 10 minutes so the patties stay firm and hold their shape
Brush extra virgin olive oil on the grill.
Grill the meat patties over medium-high heat on an outdoor grill or a stove-top grill for about 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until completely cooked through.
Transfer to a platter.

FOR THE TZATZIKI SAUCE
Combine all of the ingredients in a medium size bowl.

FOR THE GREEK VINAIGRETTE
Add the ingredients to a mason jar. Twist on the lid tightly and shake well until the ingredients are combined.
Store in the refrigerator.
Stir well before serving.

FOR THE GREEK SALAD
Add the ingredients to a large mixing bowl.
Drizzle the dressing along the outer rims of the ingredients and fold into the ingredients. Gently toss so all ingredients are lightly coated.
Garnish with mint leaves
