Instructions
Bruschetta
- Add all of the ingredients for the bruschetta into a bowl and toss together. Taste for seasoning and set aside until ready to use.
Turkey Burgers
- Pre-heat grill to medium-high heat. Clean the grill grates and brush or spray them with oil.
- In a large bowl combine all of the ingredients for the turkey burgers with your hands, careful not to overwork the meat. Form the meat mixture into 4 patties.
- Grill the burgers on each side for about 4-5 minutes or until they're cooked through. During the last couple minutes of grilling arrange the burrata on top of the burgers. Place the buns onto the grill grates to get toasted while the burrata melts.
- Place the turkey burgers onto the toasted buns and top with some of the bruschetta. Drizzle with balsamic glaze and serve.
