I followed the recipe exactly and my burgers turned out terrible. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These burgers were not good. The turkey was dry and the seasoning was lacking.

I found the burgers to be a little bland. I think I'll add some extra spices next time.

Not a fan of turkey burgers, but these were actually really good. The feta and herbs really make them.
