"In my voyage to healthier eating, I have started using ground turkey instead of beef. In doing so... I had to make it tasty too. I do not use salt. For those that choose to season, well, that's on you."

  1. This is a great "burger" patty. I did not add salt, but did add a little ground pepper to the mix. The sauce is great. I liked the ginger flavor in the meat and the sauce. Served with Recipe #258852. Made for Spring 2010 PAC.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>I was born in Southern Arizona with a taste for spice. Keeping kosher in Arizona was a challenge, so I had to eat at home a lot which meant I needed to experiment to have a variety of food available. I moved to Israel and my pallet has grown and cooking has blossomed. <br /> <br />I cook for the fun of it and rarely use a recipe as more than a base. I love to experiment and try new techniques and ideas.</p>
