Teriyaki Pineapple Turkey Burgers

14 12 2011

I was recommended this recipe by Healthy Moms Kitchen and since I had a pineapple from my basket this week I made a few changes and had a great meal. The original recipe comes from The Food Network. Instead of using a can of pineapple slices I sliced my pineapple and followed the recipe as is.
