SPICY GRILLED TURKEY BURGERS
I'd never tried ground turkey meat before. I got curious when our small grocery store down the road got some in and I just had to try it. I came up with this recipe through a magazine I had that my (of all people) gastro doctor suggested. It's called EatingWell and it has healthy recipes. Some of them are frankly off the wall, but this one wasn't bad.
