Simple and easy to make for a quick meal. The sauce sends it over the top and I love the spicy kick they have.

Try using like only a teaspoon of salt instead of 1 and 1/2 in the blackening spice because it seemed a bit too salty.

These mini turkey burgers are yummy! The blackening spice is what makes these so good. I cut back on the salt a bit and they were perfect. My husband asks for these all of the time! The sauce is good but not necessary. We like to eat them with guacamole on a toasted bun.
