These burgers are SO tasty! I don't have a grill, so I broiled them in my toaster oven for 6 minutes on each side. They turned out super moist and full of flavour.

These are really nice with grated granny smith apples mixed into the meat. The apple gives it a nice flavour and helps to keep the turkey patty moist.

I am just waiting for these to cook I put them in muffin tins cause they were to hard to handle. Any suggestions?

This was the best turkey burger we've ever had!! Although I still added bread crumbs, egg, ketchup and onion.

This was a good idea but I would make it more like a traditional burger with egg, bread crumbs, onion and then add in the taco seasoning. I thing that they would be easier to handle and to cook.
