SPINACH AND FETA TURKEY BURGERS

Spinach and Feta Turkey Burgers image

These are a big hit in the summertime when everyone is tired of the same old hamburgers and hot dogs. Serve with or without buns and your favorite condiments. I like to serve these with lettuce, tomato, and Tzatziki sauce (you can find recipes for that on this site as well).
