- Top the burgers with your favorite toppings, such as cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles.
- Serve the burgers immediately on toasted buns with a side of quick marinara sauce for dipping.
- For the marinara sauce, use canned crushed tomatoes for a quick and easy option. You can also use fresh tomatoes if you have them on hand.
- If you don't have any fresh basil on hand, you can use dried basil instead. Just add it to the sauce along with the other seasonings.
- Serve the marinara sauce warm over the cooked turkey burgers, or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for later use.
