Measure 1/2 cup of the crumbs; set the remaining crumbs aside for another use. Toast the remaining six buns.Combine the 1/2 cup bread crumbs, the spinach, feta cheese, egg product, the remaining 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper, and the cayenne pepper in a large bowl. Add turkey breast; mix well. Shape turkey mixture into six 4-inch patties.Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add turkey patties. Reduce heat to medium.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)
- Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
