20 Minute Tukey Burgers

QUICK SUMMER EATS ARE WHERE IT’S AT!

Summer is looking a little different this year, but summer eating doesn’t have to! With Memorial Day around the corner, I wanted to share this super simple, 20-minute burger recipe that is bound to be a summer staple.

I have been adding a lot of fresh herbs to our dishes lately, and this one was no exception — fresh parsley, garlic & onion, instead of their dried versions give these little burgers a pop of flavor & a little extra texture too.

These burgers are

gluten-free
dairy-free
paleo
quick to make

& only 5 ingredients!

Best part?? You can make them entirely your own depending on what toppings, sides, & bun choice you choose! I’ll share some of my faves below the recipe!
