Turkey Burgers With All The Flavour

Well, summer weather is upon us here in Vancouver and that means is officially burger season! We typically go for an easy beyond burger in this house but some days I’m feeling ambitious and know I can step up my burger game. So, I stepped up my game big time and I made some seriously killer turkey burgers.

Typically, I’m not a turkey burger fan. Actually, to be fair, I’m typically not a burger fan in general. But these burgers. Oh, these turkey burgers I could eat all day every day. They will transport your taste buds on a delicious journey. Between the sun-dried tomatoes and feta cheese. AH. It’s so good.

Okay, I don’t need to go on and on about turkey burgers. What needs to happen is you need to go get these ingredients immediately and make them for yourself
