Turkey Curry is a very popular thing to do. I absolutely love the turkey curry that I had never thought to adapt to a burger; until now. The best part about these Turkey Curry Burgers is that it is SO easy to adapt it to clean eating. What do you have in the recipe? Cheese, wheat bun, and panko can both be omitted without sacrifice to flavor. That is a fantastic thing about these Turkey Curry Burgers. High-quality spices pack a pretty delicious punch. Then you have lentils (which I have omitted for one recipe for a friend allergic to legumes), fat-free yogurt, ground turkey, onion, garlic, and spices.
