Ground turkey can be kind of dry, but the addition of spinach, feta, and olive oil help keep the moisture in. The flavors go so well together. The saltiness of the feta cheese in the meaty burger, all topped with creamy mayo, crisp cucumber, and red onion is amazing. Mix together all the ingredients for the dressing. Adding a sweet compote of dried figs simmered with honey and fresh thyme rounds out the flavors and turns a humble starter into a knock-out appetizer that is pretty enough for any party.
