Excellent! I don't know which I enjoyed more, the turkey burger or the sauce. Put them together and it makes this recipe outstanding! This turkey burger is full of flavor and stays juicy. The sauce adds another layer of flavor and spice. I halved the sauce and it was a good amount. Thank you for a great, healthy recipe!!! Made for Spring 2013 PAC event.
