spicy. smoky. turkey burgers.

So, so, so good. These turkey burgers are incredibly tasty. You will want to eat the chipotle mayonnaise on everything (like French fries!). A cold beer washes these down perfectly & the august salad makes a perfect side dish. 

This burger combo was so good, Jediah made the same thing for breakfast, but instead of the turkey burger he replaced it with an egg over-easy (see the picture below)! What a great way to use leftovers.
