When I came up with these basil lemon turkey burgers I knew I had a big winner on my hands! They had loads of bright and fresh flavor from the basil and lemon for that Italian flair that I love so much. With the homemade lemon basil mayonnaise, I wanted to tie in the same basil and lemon flavor going on in the turkey burgers to really bring it all together into one big flavor bomb.
