Juicy, Flavor-Packed Turkey Burger
These turkey burgers are the real deal—incredibly moist and bursting with savory flavor from the genius addition of Italian turkey sausage. Just five ingredients and minimal prep yield patties that'll have you forgetting all about bland, dry turkey burgers.

Why They're a Healthy Slam Dunk:
• Ground turkey is a satisfying high protein that is leaner than beef
• Italian sausage adds tons of herbs and spices for maximum flavor
• Skip heavy condiments—these patties are delicious on their own!

Grillmaster Tip:
Lightly oil the grates before grilling to get those coveted charred marks on the burgers. Serve with a zesty relish for an extra flavor punch.
