I enjoy cooking, and I frequently test out new dishes on my family. This was a delicious and simple new meal idea! My family cherished it. Provide lettuce, tomatoes, and other toppings on buns.

Reviews
My first time with ground turkey so that may be the issue. I have used onion soup in some recipes for years and like it. I made a sample bite to see what other seasonings might be needed. I spit the bite out. Disgusting!!! I added BBQ sauce to some of the rest of the meat to make it more edible. I still hated it. One of 6 of us who tried it liked it. I chose to just skip dinner.
My 12 year-old prepared these, skipping the water. I suggested she add some garlic powder and plain breadcrumbs, which held these beauties together perfectly. Sprayed the patties with canola oil before placing on the grill and grilled 5 minutes on the first side at medium low heat. Flipped and grilled 4 minutes more before adding Havarti cheese slices (swiss for me) all while my daughter sauteed mushrooms to add to these burgers. Served on toasted buns with a mountain of grilled onions and mushrooms, this was a fantastic weekday dinner! Loved the addition of the onion soup packet, which negated the need for any salt. Delicious and a hit in my house, these will be made again.
I made it, the soup is adds flavor but I had to add bread crumbs due to the 1/2 cup of water. I would not add water if I make these again, just an egg and bread crumbs.
Didn’t have dry soup mix so used Faye Watkin’s Dry onion soup mix from All Recipe instead. Subbed 1 tsp of Better Than Bouillon beef flavor for the beef bouillon to reduce the salt. Threw in a dash of smoked flavoring and my husband LOVED these. Also added 1 tablespoon olive oil as another review suggested. Be sure to refrigerate for 10 minutes, as suggested in the recipe, to firm it up! I used two pounds of ground turkey and it was seasoned just right for us.
Burgers were very good! I mixed them as directed and cooked them in the broiler. 15 minutes on one side for a thick burger, then flip for 10 more minutes. Check middle for doneness. I used mushroom-onion soup mix. Very good burgers with a salad.
This recipe is simple and really delicious. At first, I was worried because the turkey mixture lacked the kind of firmness that typical chopped meat has when you’re shaping a hamburger, but it cooked (in my oven’s broiler) just perfectly, 7 min on each side. Definitely a keeper!
I am curious that these recipes don’t indicate if the calories is for just the patty even though I am sure it is. The pictures I’m guessing is for a suggested way to eat it.
Really great after a few modifications. Omitted the water and added parsley and breadcrumbs
I added matzo meal. I felt like the mixture was to soupy .
Made these several times. The first time I used just regular ground turkey and they were a mushy mess. Recipe should really say a pound of ground (white) turkey. It’s a heartier consistency and they hold up well with the water (I use a little less than the half cup). We love them so much. Hope this helps for anyone else.
It was fantastic! I can’t wait to make them again!
I made this exactly as the recipe said to make it. I felt the onion soup mix was a little strong. I’m going to try it again using Ranch, and see if that’s a lighter flavoring that doesn’t overpower the turkey meat.
Really salty with the onion mix. Go lighter on it. Good starter though.
It was the best burgers I ever tasted.
Really good. Never knew to add water, but a great idea to keep it from drying out. Made it too runny to make on the grill for me, but it cooked really well in a pan.
Added a bit of hot sauce, sliced avocado on the top when donel
I was in a rush and needed a quick turkey burger , so, I thought I would give this a try. I should’ve gone with my instinct and not used a full 1/2 cup of water because it was mushy and I couldn’t get it to hold together. I added a little panko to the mixture to soak up some of the liquid. After it was cooked it was moist and tender, , but, I wasn’t crazy about the flavor.
I followed the recipe exactly. The burgers were delicious! I will make these again.
The water made the mixture too sloppy and I ended up adding A LOT of bread crumbs to attempt to salvage these burgers. Never making this again!
Made this last night and hubby and I both loved it added a couple of slices of bacon some soy sauce and mushrooms when I was mincing the turkey and served with cheese, onion rings and cranberry sauce (instead of relish). Yum will definitely make again.
Loved the flavor but I lost half of my burgers through the grill grate! I’ve never had any luck making turkey burgers so it may just be me.
