You can never go wrong with a cut of ground meat, its inexpensive and you can do so many things with it. I decided to grab some lean turkey meat at the grocers and take a stab at making some burgers from scratch. I enjoy a good bbq but unfortunately I don't have the luxury of it by living in a sky box, so I do the next best thing and that's bake the ground meat. The important thing to do when your baking is to make sure you place the meat on a wire rack so that the grease drips to the bottom of your baking pan and all your left with is the delicious turkey burger. I also though it would be great to go a different route then having a bun and made a delicious sauteed mushroom mix to base the burger. I always like to mix and match ingredients and you can omit any you don't like and add those that you do. When your done and ready to hoover your food feel free to add some sweet relish or even dijon mustard to the ground turkey and layer it as you see above it adds that much more to the meal.
