Mystery Burgers

Tonight for dinner I grilled some turkey burgers on the grill. The ground turkey was mixed with egg, onion soup mix, soy sauce, pepper, and garlic powder. It wasn't until Brad was within about one bite of finishing his burger that I commented you couldn't really even tell there was no beef in these burgers. He gave me a somewhat odd look and asked what was in them. I admitted it was turkey and he said that explained why they didn't taste like beef. He didn't say they were bad, but did say he'd rather eat a burger made with beef. I thought they were pretty good...I'll admit it's not the same as a hamburger, but not bad. Gives us a good option for grilling on No-Beef-Wednesdays. And you can buy ground turkey super cheap...a dollar a pound in the freezer section. That makes for a cheap meal.
