    My household is filled with turkey burger fans. It will be nice to have new twist to the same ‘ole routine.

    Yum! We made these and loved every bite. I didn’t have roasted red peppers and was pressed for time so I just chopped a pepper up and added it to the meat. We ate ours in pita pockets with some tomato and cucumber slicess.We will definitely be having these again soon.

    Just made these! AMAZING!! I skipped the tzaziki sauce, and used the creamy garlic dip sauce from the spicy sweet potato wedges recipe. Tasted great! Another favorite at my apartment. Yum, thanks Dani!

    Hi Dani,

    I do a recipe-of-the-week on my blog which I present also on radio & I came to your site today looking for clean-food inspiration. I’m thinking I’d like to make your turkey burgers..but give them a little twist here and there and probably make them chicken burgers too. I’ll give the tzatziki-from-scratch a go too (I usually just buy it).. Yours looked so nice on the video. Eventually I’d like to be like you! Eating well MOST of the time.. it’s what my body loves the most. I’ve not been well in the last 12 months.. so a good diet would be so beneficial. I used to be a regular viewer of your recipes on You Tube.. (back when I posted my own video’s). LOVE your video’s..and your website. Anyway, I will include a link to your site when I blog the chicken burgers!

    I made these JUST now and they were so juicy and delicious! Unfortuantely we had no peppers to put in the burgers, but the salty briney taste from the kalamata olives and the creamy feta made this burger so delicious! We had them with roasted sweet potato fries and roasted broccoli with leeks! Delicious clean eating meal =D!

    This was lunch today. Follow the recipe to a T and it was WONDERFUL. Made a whole butch right away and freeze the rest, now they are ready for the next time! Love, love the butter lettuce instead of bread idea. Thank you so much!
