    This burger was delicious! We added a small amount of mild curry paste instead of the curry powder. Thanks! - 5/10/09

    These were a wonderful surprise! I wasn't sure my family would like them, but my son (usually a picky eater) asked for seconds and DH - who hates curry - wants these from now on instead of beef burgers! I reduced the curry to 1/8 tsp.; he never even knew, but it was just right for us. - 1/29/09

    This is my go to recipe when making turkey burgers. I tried many other recipes, but this one leaves the burgers so most every time. - 8/29/12

    I just made these, minus the onion and they are so good!!! I had one (bunless) with fresh sliced tomatoes, and a baked sweet potato. Very good dinner! Thanks!!! - 7/26/11

    There are the best turkey burgers ever. I eat them often but have never been able to find the right seasoning combination. We'll be eating these a lot. Even my picky eaters love them. I used pre-made plain bread crumbs instead of bread. - 10/4/10

    I wasn't sure about turkey burgers, but I tried this recipe. I kind of winged it on the seasonings as I had to make more then 1lb but it still was a success. Everyone liked it, including my mother who's a very picky eater. - 3/23/10

    Surprisingly good. Didn't know what to expect with "turkey". But it was really very good! - 4/27/09

    Just fantastic! We make Greek Turkey Burgers all the time and we were looking to change it up a bit. This did the trick! I did have to add some more breadcrumbs, because one slice worth wasn't enough. We'll be adding this into our regular rotation! - 2/20/09

    The possibilities are endless when making chicken burgers - you can add just about anything! I loved the curry in these burgers - it's just the ingredient I was missing. Thanks for sharing! - 1/5/09
