The turkey burgers have become our new favorite. The stuffing makes them moist, while keeping them low-fat. I serve them on whole wheat buns and the whole family loves them.

I made the chicken burgers, but didnt use any cheese. I added some Mrs. Dash before forming the burgers. Everyone enjoyed them - even my picky 6 year old ate all of hers. Also, I coated the outside of the burgers with some of the shake n bake before I threw them on the grill. Definite keeper!

I've made the pork version several times and we love them. A great change from a hamburger with the flavor of barbeque pork.

I've never had turkey burgers before but wanted to try them...this was a great recipe!! Even my son who is a picky eater, loved them! I added the chicken stuffing which gave it great flavor, but I did have a hard time keeping them together when turning them. Next time I'll probably use an egg to keep them together or prepare them with enough time to freeze. Overall, great recipe...delicious!

I made the pork burgers for a potluck on the dock where I live. Every one had to have the recipe for them. They were moist and tender.

My husband went out in the middle of a rain storm to buy buns so we could have these burgers! He told me he really likes them, especially since I add dried cranberries into the turkey meat. I add the bbq sauce at the end and make them on the stove top on rainy days. We can't get enough of this recipe!
