With the slightly cooler weather this past weekend and no big Saturday plans, Bryan wanted to grill something for dinner. I had bookmarked a few turkey burger recipes to try so I took a look at them. This one looked perfect since it called for some cilantro and I happened to have some that needed to be used. I added a clove of garlic and half an onion to the patties for some extra flavor. I all increased the meat and portioned the servings slightly larger than the originals.I made the patties and Bryan took care of the grilling. They came out perfectly cooked and were quite tender. We ate them on whole wheat buns with veggies on top. I made some grilled brussels sprouts and baked sweet potato fries to complete the delicious meal!
