Buffalo Turkey Burgers
Rewind way back to the days, before I started my clean eating lifestyle, when I swore that a turkey burger was nothing more than a bland and boring something on my plate.
Then cousin Tonya came to visit us and made these glorious little buffalo turkey burgers. I was sold forever!! It’s all about adding “the stuff” and some delicious cheese.
The “stuff” that makes these so great is garlic, carrots, celery and good ole poultry seasoning. And then of course dredging them in buffalo sauce and topping it off with your favorite melted Cheese. My fav’s for topping burgers are Monterey Jack or White Extra Sharp Cheddar. What’s your favorite cheese for your burgers?
