    Really good. This can be made into a very delicious vegetarian version by using the mock chicken recipe.

    • 21 years ago

    This is officially my very favorite burger recipe! I’ve made this recipe twice. However, I have not been able to find ground chicken in my grocery store, so I made this recipe with ground turkey instead. It was fabulous! In addition, I do not have a grill, so I put about 1/4 cup of veggie oil in a skillet and cook the burgers on each side for about 4 minutes until they are golden brown. Then, I drain the burgers on paper towels and serve them with cheese on top. The veggies give the burger excellent flavor and add a lot of moisture. Very yummy and easy to make!!

    • 21 years ago

    Ok, nothing special. Probably won’t make again.

    • 19 years ago

    This was just OK. I cooked the burgers for 5 minutes on each side and they were a little dry. Maybe a few more veggies would have helped. I didn’t have the Old Bay Seasoning and added lemon pepper seasoning instead. That might have made a difference.

    • 19 years ago

    These were pretty good but not outstanding. The red bell pepper worked well, but I am not so sure about the carrot. Also, I wish I had used Cavenders Greek Seasoning and not Old Bay Seasoning – to me, OBS tastes overwhelmingly of celery salt which I don’t much care for. I found I needed way more breadcrumbs than the recipe called for. I might make these again, but I would definitely play around with the ingredients.

    • 18 years ago

    These burgers are quite good, and I especially like the chunks of onion and red pepper stirred into the meat. The only modification I made was that I didn’t include the tomato, and I threw some Cajun seasoning salt into both the sauteed veggies and the chicken meat. I also cooked the burgers inside on a frying pan, and I really liked the results. I really don’t understand some of the other reviewers problems… it might be the cooking, not the recipe. This would be an excellent way to spice up your next attempt at plain-ol hamburgers!

    • 18 years ago

    AWESOME! First chicken burger recipe I’ve found that the burger holds together enough to grill.

    • 18 years ago

    As burgers, this just did not work for me– I would have needed to add several times more the amount of bread crumbs to get patties that would stand up to the rigors of grilling.

    Not to be deterred, however, I placed the mixture into a pre-greased loaf pan and made chickenloaf instead, baking at 350 for 30 minutes. It tasted pretty good (I admit I, too, was doubtful about the carrots), so it all worked out in the end. This recipe DID encourage me to look for (and successfully find) Old Bay seasoning, which I admit I had never heard of as someone raised and still living in the midwest, so I have a new staple in my spice collection. I might make this as a loaf again in the future, if I have a taste for it. Thank you, Teri!

    • 17 years ago

    Loved these. We used green pepper instead of red because it was what we had and it turned out fine. I also omitted Old bay seasoning, carrots and tomato(not tastes I love in chicken). Cooked indoors because the weather was bad, but we all loved them! Thanks for the recipe!

    • 17 years ago

    REALLY REALLY GOOD! used green pepper b/c thats what i had also added chopped mushrooms… a keeper to be used AGAIN & AGAIN !! Also I first placed burgers on a piece of alum. foil and grilled for approx 2 minutes on each side before placing directly on grates, this eliminated my worry of them falling apart

    • 17 years ago

    You MUST try this recipe. The picture does not do these burgers any justice not to mention the title! Both a little on the BLAH side but these burgers are outstanding. I’ve never heard or seen ‘old bay seasoning’ (i’m from Canada) but i know the stuff is in everything on this site. A little research yielded some helpful advice (luv google). A little celery seed, mustard seed, bay leaf, paprika, pepper…and some more things i can’t quite recall. Anyhow, absolutely deee-licious and the burgers maintained a nice firm round shape throughout the entire process. Served on whole wheat buns with a little ranch dressing and lettuce. I was in heaven!

    • 17 years ago

    it was ok, I had to add a lot more bread crumbs because otherwise they would not stay together, also had trouble staying together on the grill. tasted good though!

    • 17 years ago

    Very good stuff! If you’re scaling, however, keep the amount of egg and bread crumbs the same, or you’ll get goopy burgers.

    • 17 years ago

    My fianc? & I love this! I had a few modifications… I couldn’t find ground chicken, so I used ground turkey, I didn’t have any mushrooms or peppers on hand, and I used McCormick Season All instead of Old Bay. My fianc? is a beef kind of guy and he really enjoyed this burger. We’ll be eating this all the time now!

    • 17 years ago

    These burgers were fantastic. Everyone raved about them, and they were easy to prepare—smelled great during the prep time!!!

    • 17 years ago

    we halved the recipe, but kept the breadcrumbs and egg amounts the same….these were AMAZING! So tasty and flavorful! Definitely a do-again!!!!

    • 17 years ago

    My family enjoyed very much. I did not add the carrots, mushrooms or carrots but kept everything else as written. (Personal preference.) My family really enjoyed. Thank you!

    • 17 years ago

    I cut the receipe in half but kept the bread crumbs the same as someone suggested.
    These came out great. We wil be making these again 🙂

    • 17 years ago

    I was looking for low-fat recipes and this turned out great. Unfortunately it was so good I ate three burgers (so much for the diet)! They were beautiful, moist, and flavorful. I will be making again soon.

    • 17 years ago

    not bad. I’ll definately make these again. Next time I’ll add crushed red pepper or some jalapenos for a little kick!

    • 17 years ago

    I made these tonight and everyone, including my toddler, loved them. I omitted the mushroom, tomato, and Old Bay seasoning and made 1/2 a recipe. I added salt, pepper, and dried parsley. And I also added almost double the amount of bread crumbs because it was too wet.
    Came out fantastic. Definitely will make again.

    • 16 years ago

    My husband was skeptical the first time. Bue he liked them a lot. And when I told him I was making them again today he was excited. These really are fabulous burgers. They don’t hold together like a fatty hamburger, but if you’re relatively delicate about it, they’ll stay together okay.

    • 16 years ago

    This was a great recipe – thank you! I already had decided to make Chicken Burgers and bought the ground chicken at the store earlier today. Then I figured I would see if there were any inspiring recipes online. Adding the veggies was great. In addition to the carrots and bell pepper I add one celery plus freshly chopped parsely and dill. Instead of the Old Bay Seasonings I added some Montreal Steak and Chicken seasonings….about 1 teaspoon of both. Then I sauted mushrooms and onions and melted provolone cheese on top and topped the burgers on French Bread rolls. Excellent! Healthy and delicious! Yum-oh!

    • 16 years ago

    Love this! it was very filling and I know is much healthier than beef/pork patties.

    I added a slice of Cheese on top and some cucumbers and it was good 🙂

    • 16 years ago

    Delicious and juicy!
    I omitted the carrots, peppers, and tomatoes and the egg, and added 1/2 can tomato sauce and it was so juicy!! My husband keeps asking for these for dinner!

    • 16 years ago

    I made these with ground (white) turkey meat and left out the tomatos. They’re wonderful; very juicy and flavorful. Will definately make again.

    • 16 years ago

    came out pretty good. I used turkey instead of chicken, because it was on sale. I also forgot the mushrooms, but these burgers were still super flavorful… I’d like some cool ideas for condiments for these burgers, though.

    • 16 years ago

    My whole family loved these! Next time we will try them with ground turkey for variety. We did not use the Old Bay seasoning and they still turned out great!

    • 16 years ago

    I tried these burgers with an unsure attitude, but found they were surprisingly delicious and flavorful! My family I made them for was also impressed. I did have a slightly difficult time keeping them together, although it wasn’t a serious problem – just a few veggies falling off here and there. Also, I skipped sauteing the veggies and just put them in with the chicken raw – turned out just fine!

    • 16 years ago

    I’m giving this 4 stars because I don’t think the ingredient amounts stated in the recipe are correct. I only used 1 pound of ground chicken, so theoretically I should’ve cut the rest of the in half, but there would’ve been WAY too much stuff in there for my liking. I added less than 1/4c of onions, maybe 1/8c red peppers, omitted the carrots, saved the tomatoes for a topping after they were cooked, and sauteed the mushrooms in a pan with EVOO, garlic powder and onion powder. If your chicken burgers won’t stay together, you probably have too many veggies in them…add them slowly, cause you can always add more but it’s hard to take them out! Also, if it’s very mushy, just add more breadcrumbs. Our burgers came out perfectly and every bite was as delicious as the first. Will definitely make over and over again!

    • 16 years ago

    these burgers are wonderful! i mashed some avacado with a tablespoon of fat free mayo.. yum. one quick tip.. for all the people who complained about the burger being goopy, if you line a small empty cottage cheese container with some plastic wrap, add enough chicken for one burger, cover and press down to get the air out, then refrigerate for a half hour, they stay together wonderfully and it cuts down on the carbs from all the extra breadcrumbs. you can even freeze them once wrapped so you can have these wonderful burgers anytime you want

    • 16 years ago

    This was absolutely delicious, no more beef for me.

    • 16 years ago

    I didn’t like this recipe because of the texture. I followed the recipe and no-one wanted to eat them. I ended up tossing them. Also ground chicken is very expensive where I live. I think I’ll stick to turkey burgers.

    • 16 years ago

    Made for a party. Guests loved them!

    • 16 years ago

    Excellent! I skipped the carrots and tomatoes and I only used 1lb of ground chicken (bought the all-breast kind) but I didn’t decrease the egg/breadcrumb mixture. The burgers stayed together great! I cooked them on my griddle. They did take awhile to cook–maybe 30 minutes–and we ate late but they were worth the wait. I topped them with provolone cheese. I had honey mustard with mine, and hubby and son had mayo. Our picky toddler LOVED these!! I’m already being asked to make these again, and we just had them last night!! Thanks so much for such a wonderful recipe!

    • 16 years ago

    What a surprise these were great. I did add a teaspoon of chicken bouillon while cooking the chicken. The wife and friends loved the chicken burgers. I thought these almost tasted as good as ground beef. Great for low fat. Thank you

    • 16 years ago

    I was really looking forward to making this, but I was in a hurry and didn’t saute the vegetables first.. it didn’t turn out as good as I think it would’ve been. There wasn’t enough flavor and the vegetables were pretty much still raw. I don’t think this is a fair review because of that, but I thought I’d warn against not cooking the veggies first. Will update when I make again. =)

    • 16 years ago

    I use boneless skinless chicken breasts and put the meat in my food processor. (Also do the veggies in the processor–just don’t turn things to mush.) Cheaper than buying ground chicken and I know (more or less) what I’m eating. At least I can trim it up just as I want.
    I think it really helps to refrigerate or freeze the burgers before cooking. Can also add some flax meal to make them even healthier. Lots of room for variation and personal taste here!

    • 16 years ago

    Absolutely delicious! I cut the recipe in half but still used the whole egg and just added more bread crumbs. The nice thing about this recipe is you can make them ahead of time and grill them when you are ready. I followed another’s advise and served them with lettuce and ranch dressing on a fresh kaiser roll, yummy! P.S. I think sauteing the vegies is a must.

    • 16 years ago

    Our family really liked this, alhough mine didn’t hold together as well as I liked so I might play with the mixture a bit next time. We used a little seasoned mayo, tomato and lettuce to top them off!

    • 16 years ago

    AWESOME!! Picky husband loved them. I did leave out a few things for personal tatse. I used old bay, salt and pepper, the onions, garlic and green pepper, egg and bread crumbs. Used the grill! What a great taste the old bay gives it, different but great idea!!

    • 16 years ago

    I made a few changes to the recipe. We don’t like tomatoes so I cut those out. I did scale it down to four servings and added 1/4 cup cooked brown rice. I didn’t have fresh peppers and mushrooms on hand only canned mushrooms and sweet roasted peppers. I also added a little extra breadcrumbs like some others said. The foil on the grill was a great idea also. The results were great. My twelve year old picky son even said these can go into the dinner rotation.

    • 15 years ago

    These were very tasty but a lot of prep. I cooked in an electric frying pan cause I ran out of fuel for bbq. Everyone enjoyed them.
    Made again recently and although they are a little work, they turned out fabulous! Will make these rather than buy them frozen!

    • 15 years ago

    Yuck! These were horrible. It tasted like eating carrot burgers. No one wanted to eat these. My daughter only ate the bun.

    • 15 years ago

    The best recipe I’ve ever made from allrecipes.com! I didn’t have old bay seasoning and carrots on hand, so I simply omitted them. It was fine without. The husband and kids ate them up completely.

    • 15 years ago

    Absolutely a great recipe, I love these. I half the recipe, makes 6 big burgers for me. Make ahead, grill them, pop in a ziploc and freeze for a quick, delicious and healthly meal. Would not change a thing.

    • 15 years ago

    This recipe has potential but as written it’s unusable. The people that have had success with this as written must be using ground chicken breast or ground turkey . Ground chicken is very soft and it takes 4 times the amount of bread crumbs to come close to anything workable. I played around with this alot and wound up baking it as a loaf. It wound up just ok. The amount of binder you need to add to the chicken really detracts from the overall taste. But I really liked the flavors and will play with it some more.

    • 15 years ago

    This recipe is incredible!!! We had this tonight with our neighbors. Everyone raved and even asked to take the left overs!!! The only thing I did different is I only used 1 carrot, 1 3/4 cup fresh mushrooms half a tomato. Then I actually put everything into the food process until puree then I sauteed it on med-high to get the moisture out. And I didn’t have OBS so I used 3 tea cumin and 1 tea oregano. We served it on pepper jack cheese! Delicious!

    • 15 years ago

    These rate between a 3 and 4 stars. texture was more like meatloaf but flavor was pretty good.I followed the recipe exactly. I had to form them into patties right at the grill because it was very hard to work with/ moist and delicate but it actually ended up turning out pretty good. Once it cooked for about 6 mins it was easy to flip and set very well. If i make these again, i will use lean ground turkey or ground chicken breast.

    • 15 years ago

    love this recipe, great alt. to beef for me. since i do weight watchers. did alt. to my taste ie. flour vs bread crumbles. used grill skillet on the stove.

    • 15 years ago

    What a pleasant surprise! We’ve grown up with Old Bay Seasoning, and I would have never thought it would compliment the ground chicken that well. Hubby grilled outside (we like a charcoal grill), and served with a tossed salad,and lots of chunky bleu cheese and hot sauce. Our new favorite!!!

    • 15 years ago

    I left out the mushrooms and carrots, and forgot to add the salt and pepper, and it was still great! We could eat this often!!

    • 15 years ago

    You must try this recipe, one of my favorite burgers on the BBQ, you can use chicken or turkey. I recommend to double the bread crumbs. I couldn’t find any old bay seasoning but still turned out FANTASTIC! Also, I makes a great meat loaf.

    • 14 years ago

    Healthy! However Needed a lot more seasoning, a little bland, but it’s nice because I can use the left overs in pasta, soups, and in salads. It was surprisingly solid with how much vegetables were added. I would add some soy sauce or Worcestershire sauce!

    • 14 years ago

    Great! Loved by the kids and adults! I used a tablespoon or so of chicken broth while sauteing the veggies, just because they were a little too dry with just the cooking spray. We will definitely add these to the rotation! Thank you!

    • 14 years ago

    OMG!!! U must try THESE BURGERS!!!!! They are GREAT! The veggies make this burger so moist and tasty. Give it a try, u’ll love it!

    • 14 years ago

    I followed the directions exactly. Served it on a onion bun with honey mustard…delicious!!!

    • 14 years ago

    this tastes so good! thx teri 🙂 i didn’t change a thing, except to scale it down to 2 servings. i grill it on stove top and the patty stays its form. serve it like beef burger with ketchup and mustard. i seriously chopped up the veggie and cooked them like 10 mins till soft and dry, and they combine well with the chicken, even without the breadcrumb and egg.

    • 14 years ago

    Absolutely a FAV…. i use extra Italian bread crumbs … I love the texture and flavor it gives to the burgers!

    • 14 years ago

    This was pretty good, but if I made it again, I’d put in less Old Bay. That stuff is /strong/.

    • 14 years ago

    YUM! I made this on a night when it was just me and my husband – we both had two burgers and ate the leftovers for lunch the next day. The veggie mix really does the trick to keeping the meat (we used ground turkey instead of chicken) moist. The only thing I left out was the carrots because I didn’t have them on hand.

    • 14 years ago

    following some other people’s advice, I cut on the amount of carrot by half, and added less of the other veggies. I added some salt and a bit of Dijon. Great recipe! I also put it in the oven to bake for some minutes. When I flipped sides, I also put the buns cut in half to toast lightly.

    • 14 years ago

    Fantastic! I only used 1 lb. of extra lean ground chicken…so I also decreased the veggie amounts. The one thing that I did do was to put the carrot, onion and garlic through my food processor on the grate blade so they were nice and fine. I also fine chopped the tomato, red pepper and mushrooms by hand. This mixture was nice and bulked up the burgers without feeling like I was biting into huge hunks of veggies. So I would suggest to make sure that the veggies are finely chopped. I also omitted the egg….didnt feel the need for it, and also used 1/2 tblspn of the Old Bay. We really loved these burgers…topped with munster cheese and I didnt even use a roll…..just plain with a salad. Very flavorful! Thanks!

    • 14 years ago

    I have made these several times now. Super!! Perfect as is. Nice and juicy and full of veggies. Thank you… my husband loves them as well. I even grill up a big batch and freeze them for future meals. Excellent.

    • 14 years ago

    These were delicious. I was a little disappointed because they fell apart some on the grill. Next time I think I’ll add more bread crumbs and cut back a little bit on the veggies. Hopefully that’ll keep them together better. Great flavor though and a nice change from regular burgers!

    • 14 years ago

    This is our new favorite burger. I had to use ground turkey, as ground chicken was not available at our store.

    • 14 years ago

    This recipe makes great burgers. Whole family loved them. I made too much for our young/small family of 4 because I used 2 lbs of ground chicken as directed. HOWEVER, this was a nice mistake! I used what I needed for the burgers and put the rest back in the fridge. The next day, I used it to make a pizza with Chicken, Goat Cheese, Sundried tomatoes, Spinach and Onions. But WAIT, there’s more!!! I froze the remaining chicken in a ziplock bag thinking that it would be a while before I used it. About 3 days later, I wanted to make Mexican food, but had no meat. Out comes our hero again. This time I cooked the remaining chicken in a skillet, removed half and added some taco seasoning for my kids’ “Burritos” (Chicken and Cheese). Finally, I used the remainder in some Enchiladas by mixing in some cream cheese, filling and rolling tortillas, pouring some enchilada sauce on them and Mexican cheese, and then baking it all in the oven for 15 minutes. BY FAR, the most use I’ve gotten out of one recipe. I plan to keep this one just as my new “base” for numerous more experiments. Thanks for a new staple in our menu!

    • 14 years ago

    This is not one of our favorites. Did not have enough flavor our liking. Maybe it will for you, give it a try.

    • 14 years ago

    Excellent flavor and consistency! My family is thrilled with this healthy burger. Today I’m trying it as meatloaf.

    • 14 years ago

    These were SO delicious!! I didn’t have Old Bay seasoning so I just left it out and added some fresh basil. I also used only one lb of chicken but left all other measurements the same, which made eight small-medium sized patties. I really like the addition of the veggies and was thrilled when my two year old asked for more! I will be making these again, maybe next time I’ll try turkey meat to see how it comes out.

    • 14 years ago

    A good burger. Almost like a veggie burger (I added more veggies than in the recipe). This recipe makes a very juicy burger and is very healthy and works well for those on a ‘clean-eating’ diet.

    • 14 years ago

    everyone loved it!

    • 14 years ago

    Excellent recipe! My 18 month old son, who hates all vegetables, loved this burger. I love how many veggies there are hidden inside. Thank you for a healthy and nutritious recipe. I will be making these often.

    • 14 years ago

    This recipe is perfect! It’s easy to form into patties if you wet your hands a little. I have made these chicken burgers every summer on the grill. I drizzle them with a little vegetable oil first. They come out so juicy every time.

    • 13 years ago

    These burgers are much better for you than using beef. I tried them for the first time recently as I am watching my weight and was surprised to find how delicious they are. I will rarely use beef again if ever. One thing I have found is not to add the egg and to just add a small amount of bread crumbs into the chicken mixture. The egg makes the mixture to loose. When the mixture is formed into patties I then lay them on bread crumbs so they are coated on the outside. This makes them hold together while grilling and forms a nice texture to the burgers. You can also vary the ingredients to your liking. Hope this helps. Oakville Kathy

    • 13 years ago

    Excellent, I froze some of them. I’ll be making a double batch next time.

    • 13 years ago

    OMG…so awesome. I used .81 pounds of chicken breast…about 5 carrots, 1/2 onion, 1/2 green pepper, tomato, 1 egg and at least 4 T of breadcrumbs. They are so good. I used a tiny bit of swiss on top when I grilled them and then didn’t even use a bun to eat it…I ate it with one of my favorite salads (the one with raman noodles, broccoli slaw) YUMMY!

    • 13 years ago

    I didn’t use the mushrooms, but I don’t think that made a big difference at all. I LOVED THESE. We made them inside on a grill pan since it’s freezing outside, and they were simply delicious. We sauteed all the veggies together (putting the tomatoes in last), and really just let it cook for up to 10 minutes.
    I will definitely make them again.

    • 13 years ago

    These were awesome! And since we are on a heart smart diet I substituted panko bread crumbs & used egg whites. You can load up on the veggies with these! We also used portebella mushrooms as our buns! Great dish & will be making again!

    • 13 years ago

    These were so good and so easy.
    I dont BBQ so I pan fried them in Pam spray.
    I didnt have bread crumbs or Old bay seasoning so I used some dried stuffing mix and dried savory. Kids loved them!
    Oh, also left out the tomato.

    • 13 years ago

    The ingredients make the taste. Ground chikcen is much better to use than turkey.

    • 13 years ago

    Really good! Didn’t use mushrooms, halved recipe, kept breadcrumbs same, fried in veg. oil about 10 minutes, they were moist and really tasty.

    • 13 years ago

    I really liked these. I had to use a lot more bread crumbs than the recipe called for, but I loved all the veggies in the burger. Very good and I will make these for myself and freeze the patties for when my husband gets in the mood to grill. He wasn’t really fond of them, but he’s not a huge chicken fan.

    • 13 years ago

    I made these burgers a long time ago and lost the recipe. Glad I found it again. I know about the burgers being delicate and falling apart. The way to solve this is to freeze them, then grill them from frozen state, works perfect. Now I need to find this “old bay seasoning”. These burgers are truly a great substitude and so much healthier. My grandsons love them.

    • 13 years ago

    Awesome recipe! I also made a few adjustments to mine based simply on ingredients I had/didn’t have. A little less onion, garlic powder vs. whole, no tomatoes (to prevent a runnier burger), all-purpose seasoning (vs Old Bay) and ground turkey. Still pretty awesome. My father in law, who is a pretty hardcore red meat guy, even complimented me on them (he also had never had a turkey burger before). I really liked the flavor and the substance. I will absolutely make these again!

    • 13 years ago

    These are WONDERFUL. Our whole family kind of turned up there noses and thought the worst. Everyone LOVED them and had seconds. We did put a small piece of swiss cheese on a few of them and it made them even better. I did however use the same amount of almost everything except the ground chicken and I only had one lb so I used that and tripled the panko breadcrumbs to stretch it and added 2 eggs instead of one. INCREDIBLE…is all we can say.

    • 13 years ago

    Sooooo gooood!! I added some strips of turkey bacon on top. Will do again!

    • 13 years ago

    A great, flavorful alternative to beef burgers. Try with sliced avocados, sliced green onions and a dollop of chipolte sauce…with or without a bun!

    • 13 years ago

    These burgers are amazing! I didn’t use carrot or tomato and added a little extra Old Bay Seasoning and they were the best burgers we have ever had.

    • 13 years ago

    We love this recipe! Full of vegetables so it is healthy and the veggies make the burgers so moist. I have made them with ground turkey, ground chicken and ground soy and all were good although the ground soy needed to be grilled on tin foil since they didn’t hold together as well as the poultry ones. We can’t get Old Bay Seasoning in Canada so I use a Cajun spice mix instead.

    This was so good! The vegetables keep the meat moist so you dont have to worry about over cooking it. (I always worry with chicken) It is healthy and delicious! This has become one of my favorite recipes.

    YUM! Very flavorful…even my beef loving husband thought these were really, really good.

    Awesome burger. I didn’t have all of the vegetables that the recipe called for so used onion, peas, tomatoes, carrots and shredded zucchini. I also added some powdered chicken bullion while the veggies were cooking. I followed the rest of the recipe and these are up there on the best burgers I’ve eaten list.
    Next time I’m going to do feta, sun dried tomatoes and spinach. Oh the possibilities!

    Wow, this is a great recipe! I made this for dinner today and it really came out wonderfully. Tasty and juicy. As I didn’t have a grill, I broiled the burgers in my oven. The results were excellent! just as we like them. I served them with basmati rice. I will make them again and again.
    Making the patties is easier if you wet your hands with a little water.

    Amazing flavor!! I cooked mine in the broiler and after reading some comments I didn’t even bother use a rack since it sounded like they would probably fall through. Its not like they are sitting in fat while you’re broiling them so there wasn’t really a need for a rack.
    Absolutely scrumptious and a def keeper!

    These were pretty good. Though, I thought it was a little heavy on carrots, but that may be because I incorrectly estimated the quantity of baby carrots. Put them on a bun with the normal hamburger fixins and the kids gobbled them up without questioning what was inside the burgers. Hubby didn’t care for them, but will make again due to how healthy they are. I did not have trouble with them staying together like others did — cooked them in the grill pan. Used fresh meat and wonder if others that had them fall apart used frozen, thawed meat which always seems wetter to me. ??

    Think I followed the recipe pretty closely, but my burgers were really bland. Sometimes that happens, I guess. I’m a really novice cook so it may well have been a mistake I’m not even aware of. For one, I made on the stove-top. Sorry, Chicken.

    Made them exactly per recipe, and they were amazing. My husband is a diehard fan of beef but even he loved these. No sauce or ketchup or even toppings needed.
