Beach Party—Turkey Burgers with Smoked Gouda and Spicy Pickle Sauce

August 8, 2018 by Tonja Leave a Comment

Who says you can’t eat burgers in a bikini? Liven up your next beach party or backyard BBQ with these lean and luscious turkey burgers. They are a great alternative to ground chuck when you want to lighten things up but still crave the flavor of a juicy burger.  I’ve added some minced red onion, Worcestershire, seasonings, and herbs to kick-up the flavor.  The spicy pickle sauce seals the deal and is a must at your next summer soiree.
