If you love turkey or chicken burgers and are looking for a new way to infuse some spicy flavor — here is the ticket! You can use whatever meat you like and pack it full of intense flavor with vegetables, herbs and spice. Don’t be scared off by the ingredients – you can make it as spicy as your audience likes, it’s very flexible.

 

This is great to eat with a bowl of soup or on a whole grain bun with arugula and chipotle mayo!
