Spicy Hawaiian Burgers

For years I have had problems finding some good turkey burger recipes. Lately, however, I have have found several really good turkey burger recipes. Now the problem is when I am in the mood for a burger which one do I make?

The flavorful burger and spicy cheese pairs so well with the sweet pineapple. This burger is a wonderfully delicious combination. Just look at all that melted cheese and sweet pineapple! Yummy!!!
