    Delicious, when I was making these my family kept telling me what smells so good and they were excited to eat these. I paired them with the Crunchy Asian Salad. It was a perfect pairing, we added the salad on top of our burgers. This recipe is going into my favorites.

    Made these tonight with the dry ingredients I had instead of fresh. The burgers were still amazing. My daughter, who doesn't eat turkey, enjoyed it very much. And we put avocado on instead of cucumbers. Again, delicious.
