Replacing turkey burgers with?

2Mad2BeMad

I'm currently body building for the last 3 months.
My diet is pretty solid and I'm seeing results fast
Theirs one problem though, I'm absolutely sick of eating turkey burgers. I need to eat 8 a week. I train 4 days a week so eat 2 every training day.

I've tried adding different sauces and different flavours but I just can't stomach I feel physically sick when I even smell them now.

Can anyone recommend me a good replacement? That provides close to the same macros you'd get from a turkey burgers.

Thanks.

Literally any lean meat or fish. Beef, chicken, tuna... anything that was once an animal and is now yours to consume. Turkey burgers is just minced turkey mushed together.

Why do you need to eat 8? And you could just offset the extra calories in beef burgers from something else. Maybe have one less egg or a slightly smaller portion of rice.

8 turkey burgers = X calories and Y macro profile.

Beef will only be fattening if you eat too much of it. It's entirely possible to use beef to fit the nutritional profile of the 8 turkey burgers.

It's possible but requires to much moving around of other things. And I'm lazy haha I have the diet set up that I hit the macros perfectly and I like everything on my diet I could eat it year around. But the turkey burgers I'm having trouble with. Il mix it with tuna and give it a try.

Regarding why I need 8. Because it hits my macros perfectly for the week (as long as I eat everything else of course)
I already eat 3 x 100gram of chicken a day, basically 3 chicken fillets. 4 eggs, lean mince with beef so il change to tuna. I don't want to much beef il probably get sick of it as well to be honest. Cheers for the posts lads

It doesn't require you to move around anything. It's a direct substitution.

Just use extra-lean beef mince (5% fat or less)

100g of Aldi's 5% mince has @105 kcals, 4g fat and 17g protein

100g extra lean mince has 118 kcals, 4g fat and 20g protein.

What about a veggie alternative like Tofurkey burger or a Bean burger

I had a prawn fishcake burger once in Louisana and it was delish

Cajun dusted salmon would work too

Because meat.

TBH, if you're sick of turkey burgers now, you'll be sick of something else on the meal plan in another month. You might as well bite the bullet now and start mixing things up. If you cook batches of meals for the week you won't have to to do much calculations every day.

Come up with a few meals that hit your macro goal and freeze a few portions, then just defrost whatever you fancy each day, knowing that it will meet your calorie and macro goals.

Are you bulking or cutting at the moment?

A complete aversion to fat is making it your job of hitting your intake a but harder.
What are you daily macro targets?
