Mar-a-Lago Turkey Burgers
This recipe makes 8 large burgers. Feel free to cut in half and make 4 large or 6 smaller burgers. I've omitted the lemon quite often and they're terrific without it, just FYI!
Servings half-pound burgers

- BURGER PATTIES
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup finely chopped celery

- 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
- 4 pounds ground turkey breast or 85/15 turkey
- 2 tablespoons kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon black pepper

- FOR ASSEMBLY

Instructions
- In a saute pan over medium-low heat, sauté the celery, apples, and green onions in butter until tender. Let cool. Place the ground turkey in a large mixing bowl. Add sauteed items and the remaining ingredients. Shape into eight 8-ounce burgers. Refrigerate for 2 hours to firm.

- Try it with a side of Sweet Potato Fries, or some Grilled Corn on the Cob for a great (and healthy!) summer meal.
