Incredibly Juicy Baked Turkey Burgers
Turkey Burgers are one of my favorite dinners because they’re packed with protein, can be customized to fit everyone’s tastes (including my picky toddler!), and are an easy recipe to make.
I love making homemade turkey burgers in the oven because I don’t have to stand over and watch them cook like I’d normally do on the stovetop.
