Bacon Ranch Burgers

Summer is over, but I wanted to share one last burger recipe that can easily be thrown together on the grill or on the stove.  This is a fun and unique twist on the same old-same old burger.  Feel free to substitute ground turkey for the ground beef in this recipe and enjoy!

This is also the 23rd Tickle My Tastebuds Tuesday recipe hop!  We couldn’t do it without your support and delicious recipes… so thank you!  Let’s get cooking…
