So often we get stuck in a rut of grilling the same old burgers and hot dogs. Well don’t let that stop you from trying a little something new with a burst of delicious flavor. I decided to experiment with some recipes and I discovered this amazing little taste of heaven…the Grilled Turkey Caribbean Burger (Lettuce Wrap)!!! You can put this burger in a bread bun and enjoy it as well. However, I don’t do well with a lot of bread/gluten so we decided to try it as a lettuce wrap and it was amazing!

Please enjoy this recipe and feel free to comment on any modifications or suggestions you may have!
