    I really liked these burgers they were super tasty and not dry at all and they were super simple to make and fun to make. I think this would be fun to make with kids and healthy. You don't even notice the difference between beef and turkey - 7/15/10

    Very good. One of my first attempts with ground turkey in place of ground beef. I didn't taste too much of the cheese in the middle, but they were very easy to make and tasted very good. - 8/10/10
