Grillin' Turkey Burgers

This is my all time favorite burger! It is just like any other burger but of course, with turkey meat. When I ask if someone has ever had a turkey burger I always seem to get the same response, a blank and confused stare. I soon go into how much I love them and how good they are for you. I try and explain that it is simply just a change in meat, just like if you were to change the type of bread you eat your sandwich on or even just simply changing from ham to bologna for lunch.

Most of the time when I cook turkey burgers for dinner I prepare the food while my fiancé grills the burgers outside. I start with the ground turkey meat and add fresh minced garlic, chopped jalapenos, chopped onions and Tony Chachere’s.  Note: If you don’t have fresh garlic, you can always use garlic powder. Once everything is mixed well, I slightly score the meat to make it into four equal patties. While the burgers are outside on the grill I like to sauté onions, squash, and zucchini if I have it. Every now and then I will add zucchini to the grill outside as well. Once the burgers are close to done I add a nice piece of melted slice cheese to the patty. Everyone adds different fixings to their burger so there is never the same turkey burger.

Turkey burgers are a weekly meal made in my kitchen. Not only do I enjoy them but my fiancé does as well. He loves grilling outside on his barbeque pit and it is less work I have to do in the kitchen! If you have never tried turkey burgers, you are without a doubt missing out on a tasty burger. Add whatever you like, it only makes the ending result taste better!
