I would have never thought to add veggies to a turkey burger patty but so glad I gave this one a try. These are definitely the best turkey burgers I've made to date.
Little Man loved them so much and was not turned off when he found out they were filled with carrots. He ate every bite of his. I was impressed.
These burgers come together quickly and make for an easy weeknight meal leaving enough time to get in an after dinner walk. Make sure you make a couple extra for leftovers or to take to work because they reheat well.
