YUMMY!!! I've been making ground turkey/chicken burgers waaaaay before they became popular since I don't eat beef. I added onion soup, fresh basil, fennel seeds, crushed red pepper flakes for a little kick and mixed in blue cheese crumbles - served on whole grain/onion buns and everything bagels w/sprouts & fresh spinach, red onion slices (yes, I LOVE onions!!). Endless possibilities from recipe - just add seasonings
