The Best Turkey Burgers with Greek Yogurt Aioli

Lean turkey burgers have a reputation for being dry, tasteless, and... boring.

If you're someone who has given up on turkey burgers because of the above-mentioned reasons, then you NEED to give this recipe a try!  I promise you it will change your mind about lean ground turkey.  By filling the patties with veggies and spices, topping it with a flavorful and calorie-conscious Greek yogurt aioli, and dressing it up with your favorite vegetables (bun is optional but ) you'll have a great low calorie weekday meal. But if you are on a cheat day and you know buns are a difference maker, I would recommend you to choose brioche buns for this burger.

Definitely one to keep around as you gear up for the holiday week of treats and yummies coming up soon.  Enjoy!
