Ingredients
- 3/4 pound ground turkey
- 1 medium zucchini, grated

- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 3/4 teaspoon dried thyme
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt

- 4 slices crusty bread
- 4 small leaves Boston lettuce

Directions
- Heat broiler. In a large bowl, combine the turkey, zucchini, carrot, garlic, thyme, salt, pepper, and egg. Form the mixture into 4 patties.
