Mexican Turkey Burgers with Pico de Gallo image

I serve this without the roll for a great low-carb meal. If you decide to use a roll, drain the Pico de Gallo before placing on top of the burger to prevent the bun from getting wet. Fresh cilantro is a must for the Pico de Gallo. While you may choose to use a little cooking spray, it is not necessary as the burgers, at first a little sticky, will firm up as they cook.

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 medium tomatoes, chopped

These burgers are a great way to use up leftover turkey. They're also a healthier alternative to traditional beef burgers.

These burgers were amazing! I loved the smoky flavor of the chipotle peppers. The pico de gallo was also a great addition.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my burgers fell apart when I tried to flip them. I think I needed to cook them for a little longer.

These burgers were a bit dry, but the pico de gallo helped to add some moisture. Overall, they were still a good meal.

These burgers were easy to make and turned out great! I used ground chicken instead of turkey, and they were still delicious. The pico de gallo was a perfect topping.
