Introduction

These Turkey Burgers will be your new favourite thing.

Bursting with fresh and healthy flavours, juicy and delicious, these burgers need two hands and a napkin.

Higher in protein and lower in fat than chicken, turkey is often overlooked as a protein.

I love to use turkey breast steaks and pulse them in my food processor to make the minced meat – this way, I know exactly what is in my burger.

And once you’ve made my Green Goodness Dressing, I can promise you it will be a staple in your house too.

By combining the juicy and flavourful turkey  with a lush and herby dressing, you get a burger that is fresh, healthy and bursting with deliciousness that the whole family will want to gobble-gobble up!
