    Found these to be really dry. To improve use 1 small onion, minced and 4-6 ounces white mushrooms minced. Mix with turkey and other spices. then grill or pan fry. The moisture from the fresh onion and mushroom keeps the lean burgers moist and adds flavor but isn't overpowering. - 6/8/09

    Good as is or add some finely diced bell peppers for even more flavor. Did so and used with rice to stuff bell peppers and turned it into two nights dinners. - 10/6/07

    I made these for my husband and he loved them. I made them up and then froze them in plastic pattie containers and they turned out great! - 10/9/07

    This receipe was wonderful. I topped it with some cooked mushrooms and tomatos ( lightly cooked together with some garlic) and put it on whole wheat toast with a little lowfat sourcream (instead of mayo) and it was delicious. I have never had a turkey burger before and I will be eating more now!! - 10/6/07

    Great base recipe to experiment with. I left out the salt but added a splash of Worcestershire sauce. Also added a bit of olive oil and a couple Tbsp. of a dry hummus mix that makes disappointing hummus. Turns out it's a great addition to turkey burgers. Next time will try the minced mushrooms. - 6/24/12

    SO YUMMY! Instead of minced onion flakes I used fresh onion and it kept the burger moist. My fiancée, who HATES any semblance of healthy, liked it! I threw a piece of fat-free cheese and some sauteed mushrooms and made an AWESOME burger! Thanks for sharing!! - 11/28/10

    I normally buy Jennie O turkey burgers but don't think I'll be buying them any more after trying this recipe. Very good! The kids liked them too. - 3/15/10
