The idea for these Zesty Lemon Turkey Burgers came to me one day when I was looking for a healthy and flavorful alternative to traditional beef burgers. I had some ground turkey in the fridge, and I started experimenting with different ingredients until I came up with this recipe. I love the combination of the lemon zest and juice with the parsley, red onion, and garlic. It gives the burgers a bright and fresh flavor that's perfect for summer. I also like that these burgers are made with almond flour instead of breadcrumbs. Almond flour is a great source of fiber and protein, and it gives the burgers a nice nutty flavor. These burgers are easy to make and cook quickly, so they're perfect for a weeknight meal. They're also a great source of protein, so they'll keep you feeling full and satisfied.
