MoMo's Grilled Turkey Burgers
I wanted to make some burgers for my wife (who doesn't eat beef) one day. I came up with this grilled turkey burger recipe on the fly, remembering some items that my father put in his burgers. My wife instantly loved them! I thought it was a fluke but I made them for parties for my wife and everyone else loved them too! Quick and delicious!
