A surprisely very tasty turkey burger! The okra and jalapeno cheese slice adds a lot of moisture and flavor to what can be a pretty bland meat. I made the first burgers without egg, but felt it would hold together better with one or perhaps if cheese were made part of the burger mix. I will be trying that next time.
