Pepperoni Pizza Burgers

These burgers are so yummy. You can really taste the sausage in it even though there is more ground turkey.

If you do not want to have a 1/4 pound of sausage left you can always add the full pound. Also you can add more pepperoni if you would like. The reason I used the amounts I did was to keep the sodium levels down so my husband could enjoy this delicious burger as well. Anyway you make this it will be delicious!!!
