Turkey Veggie Burgers
After eating this turkey veggie burger for dinner, Hubby instantly asked if I would make 100 more. This is coming from a guy who swore he’d never enjoy a turkey burger as much as a beef burger. They’re that good. The shredded veggies keep the burgers extra moist just like they do in muffins and quick breads.
We had some purple carrots from our CSA box, which resulted in a very colorful turkey veggie burger. I got six burgers from the recipe and we ate leftovers in our lunches for a couple days. Then a couple days later, Hubby made another batch for us.

YUM! That a GREAT idea to add the mushrooms and asapargus! We are going to have to try this!
I covet mushroom and asparagus recipes. I’m the only one in my family who will eat them- le sigh.
This looks really good and I love pasta and shrimp too, I so could have helped you polish this off.
Looks good! Thanks for entering VTV!

which appeared as kleenex in the first printing (the reason it was in the
dictionary, of course, was that it had changed in usage from denoting a brand of
tissue to being a synonym for tissue), but was thereafter capitalized under
