If you like spicy food, you'll love these burgers! When I added the jalapeno pepper to my regular turkey burgers and served them with the sauce, they were a hit. You can also grill them.

All of the deep flavors really boost the ground turkey. For added taste, I mashed up an avocado and spread that on the (toasted) buns before serving. Big thumbs up!
