The secret to these hearty, juicy turkey burgers is minced vegetables and plain breadcrumbs in the patties, which add plenty of flavour and help keep the patties moist as they cook. Try to keep your patties a consistent size and thickness to ensure even cooking. A homemade avocado topping adds richness and tastes decadent. Add some paprika and diced tomatoes to make a more guacamole-style avocado spread, if you like.
