Turkey Burgers

This recipe is an oldie but a goodie. I totally forgot I had created this recipe as I haven’t made it in years… and I’m not sure why. This is a perfect, healthy take on a homemade burger.

Turkey meat mixed with mustard, onions and parsley for extra flavour. BBQ it up on the grill or fry in a cast iron pan. Serve on a whole wheat bun with all your favourite toppings and drizzle with honey mustard. Now that’s a healthy weeknight dinner! Serve with store-bought or homemade yam chips or fries. This meal is so healthy, you can even splurge on enjoying a beer, you deserve it!

These turkey burgers are worth cooking, eating and gossiping about!
