Allison, I am interested in trying turkey burgers for breakfast. I would need just a serving for me, and I would like to make it fresh each morning. What's the best way to do that?

I was thinking to prepare the mixture when buying the ground turkey (mix it with chopped onions, egg, breadcrumbs, spices, whatever) and freeze in small packages. Then defrost a package in the frig overnight, and fry in a pan in the morning.

Does that sound logical?
Is it ok to freeze the turkey with onion, egg, etc. mixed in?
I've never done that, and wonder if it's safe to freeze it that way.

I'd appreciate any suggestions you might have.
Thanks, Sarit.

: Hi Michael
: One egg and a slice of toast won't be
: enough, but if you are not used to
: eating breakfast, it's a great
: start and you can get used to
: eating and then gradually add
: more.

: I need about 22 grams of protein,
: although since I exercise a lot I
: sometimes eat a bit more. I like
: to have a protein shake on
: weekdays, and on weekends I have
: an omelette. I don't want to eat
: more than 3 eggs, so I make up the
: rest of the protein with ham,
: cheese etc. And I always have 2
: slices of toast.

: As you get used to breakfast, if you
: are open to unusual breakfast
: choices, you can get your protein
: needs in with less volume of food
: with something like a 4 ounce
: turkey or beef burger with cheese.
: I used to cook a turkey burger
: every morning, and I had a bowl of
: oatmeal with it, but you could eat
: it on a whole grain bun. A shake
: is also an easy way to get in
: protein. I use a scoop of Restore
: in mine, and then supplement the
: protein with some cottage cheese
: and greek yogurt. I put the oats
: right in it.

: But if eating breakfast is a
: challenge, by all means start off
: with an egg and toast. Eventually
: your body will start asking for
: more.
