Pesto Turkey Burgers are less than 5 ingredients, full of flavor, and the perfect reason to fire up the grill!
Grilling season is HEEEEEERE!
And if you couldn't tell, I'm just a *little* excited about it. Okay, I'm a lot excited about it.
Unlike other warm weather tasks like watering my flowers or putting on sunscreen, grilling out is one of those things that I NEVER get sick of as July turns to August and turns to September. I love the ease of it, how it brings us outside to the patio, and the fact that we don't have to turn on the oven. Oh and the smell of some burgers sizzling on the grill is almost comparable to the smell of brownies baking in the oven. ALMOST.
So last week after we returned from vacation, the weather was nice and you better believe the first meal I made was these burgers on the grill!
Let me be clear - these aren't just any burgers. These are Pesto Turkey Burgers. I've had these brewing in my mind for the last month, just waiting for the perfect spring day to fire up the grill, and they did not disappoint.
Really - these couldn't be easier, either. The burgers are just three ingredients - ground turkey (you could use beef or even chicken, if you prefer), minced garlic, and pesto. So, so easy.
I topped them off with some crumbled goat cheese and arugula, and then another drizzle of pesto because why not? They would also be delicious with basil mayo spread on top!
So get out there, fire up your grills, and get grilling season off to a good start!
haha I'm with you - I just put something to grill on our menu for this week and I'm pumped! These burgers sound awesome with the pesto!!
Oh my gosh I JUST thought today how I dont eat enough pesto. That stuff is magical! These burgers look and sound incredible.
