This recipe is a healthier take on the typical hamburger. Instead of nestling your burger between a bun, top it with vegetables for added nutrients. The blue cheese mixed into the turkey burger prior to grilling allows it to melt and create an ideal texture. Top with your condiment of choice and enjoy.
