Greek Turkey Burgers

Hey!
I promise this will be a quick post, I just wanted to share a delicious recipe Andrew and I (ok, well Andrew mostly) made for dinner Sunday night. These were relatively simple to make and came out tasting really great. I don't have any of our own pictures--I think we were too hungry and they were too good to stop and take any--so the picture above is from Southern Living, where we found the recipe. We ended up saving time by buying pre-made tzatziki sauce from Trader Joes. We also switched out the french hamburger buns and bought more of a flatbread, pita thing that we just cut to size for our burgers. For toppings, we used spinach, onions, and more feta, of course. We also made our own french fries, topping them with lemon juice, oregano, and feta (for a more Greek-style fry). If you can't tell, we're big feta lovers over here :) Yum Yum. Here's the recipe:
