"My husband really doesn't care for zucchini or ground turkey but he liked these. He said they weren't over the top great but he did eat it all. The patties tried to crack and fall apart on the gril..." See morel, so pan frying might have been a better method. Served on a whole wheat bun & a side of coleslaw."

"This recipe does nothing to the original except add some grated zucchini. I could make this recipe just as healthy by topping the burgers with some pickles and lettuce...." See more"
