Teriyaki Turkey Burger with Grilled Pineapple – Pin it for later!

Lately, we have been trying to change up our eating habits a bit, for the better. Since I am having a hard time going from chocolate cake to rice cake, we decided to make small changes and adjust as we go. We all like a good well-seasoned turkey burger, so the decision to add it to our weekly Menu Plan was an easy one. The normal turkey burger recipe we tend to go to needed a little extra something to kick it up a bit, make it interesting, add a little more flavor.

The best EVER Teriyaki Sauce gave our turkey burger just the right amount of WOW. The two recipes were a perfect match. I wish I had thought of making this sooner.
