Mediteranean Turkey Patties with Salad and Rice

I am using the rest of the ground turkey from my lettuce wraps to make dinner tonight. Stretching one type of protein through two meals is one way that I keep my grocery prices low.

I was thinking of Mediterranean and Greek food when I dreamed up this meal.

Ingredients:
1/2 Pound Ground Turkey
Garlic Salt
1 Tablespoon + 1/2 Teaspoon Dried Oregano
Red Pepper Flakes
Salt and Pepper
Romaine Lettuce
Red Onion, sliced
Tomato, diced
Lemon Juice
Olive Oil
Garlic Salt
Rice
Mayonnaise 
Spicy Brown Mustard

Serves 2

Cook rice according to package directions.

Mix the ground turkey with garlic salt, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes. Form the ground turkey into four patties. Heat a pan with some olive oil over medium high heat. Add the patties to the pan and cook until no longer pink, flipping half-way through. 

Chop lettuce, onion and tomato. Make a dressing by mixing 1 part olive oil, 2 parts lemon juice, garlic salt and a squirt of spicy brown mustard. Pour over the salad.

For an aoli-like sauce, combine 1/4 cup mayonaise, 1/4 cup spicy brown mustard, and a squirt of lemon juice. Serve sauce over turkey patty.This sauce is really cheap, using ingredients already in your fridge, but makes the meal feel special.
