    These turkey burgers are such a go to for my husband and me. Terrific on the Blackstone. The salad to the side is important, but it could be a variety of combinations. These burgers are moist and quite flavorful.

    Delicious use for an over abundance of zucchini. I added a simple vinaigrette to the lettuce/vegetables because it was a little too plain.

    They’re quick & pretty good. I think they definitely need some condiments. I just added some chopped red onion, tomato & cilantro and sriracha to mine.

    Nicely spiced. Moist. Great side salad

    Delicious. We couldn’t even tell we were eating ground turkey with the combination of Middle Eastern spices. The zucchini, parsley, mint leaves, and bread crumbs make the burger interesting, substantial, and satisfying. I topped the burger with a couple sliced cherry tomatoes and crumbled feta cheese. I served the accompanying Persian salad on the side. Pita bread wedges with roasted red pepper hummus made for a complete meal. This is a burger I think would be a great make-ahead, freeze and have available for lunch since the pan sautéing is so quick.

    These were very tasty and for those who don't like zucchini (everyone else in my family), there was enough to prevent the burgers from being too hard and dry but not enough to be noticeable. I broiled them so they developed a good crust on both sides.
