I’ve seriously lost count on how many turkey burger recipes I have on the blog. That sounds so boring, but if you have made any of my turkey burgers… you know they are NOT boring. This turkey burger sheet pan dinner is way more than JUST a turkey burger… these are LEMON BLUEBERRY turkey burgers. Stay with me! They’re savory and juicy and keto, paleo and Whole30.
Sheet Pan Dinner
Best of all, it’s a sheet pan meal! Heck yes! Which means that there is minimal dishwashing and everything is done at the same time. Because I like to make two pounds worth of turkey burgers I use two sheet pans. One for the veggies, a mix of brussel sprouts and kale that roasts up to crispy perfections and one for my massive turkey burgers!
Shameless Plug
I’m going to talk about my book for a second here, well because … I wrote a freaking book and I only announced a week ago AND we already changed the cover once… due to some font issues. But I am still super excited about this book. It has over 150 recipes. All dairy, nut, and nightshade free. All of them are low carb/keto, paleo and many are AIP compliant or with AIP mods. We have a lot of egg-free and coconut free options too!
Please check it out on Amazon! If you pre-order now you will have it in your hands July 17th. Also, email me your pre-order confirmation to madewholecookbook@gmail.com and I will send you my 35 recipe e-book, free!

I just had this for dinner and I have to say – the BEST turkey burger I have ever had! I don’t generally like ground turkey but I bought some by mistake. I remembered this recipe and gave it a try. These are delightful and the roasted veggies are a perfect side. Delicious!

This recipe sounds amazing. I don’t like kale. Could I sub spinach instead or what else would you suggest?
Cristina says
Spinach wont cook like kale in the oven. Use broccoli
Karen says
Thos sounds absolutely delicious! But, we don’t eat pork and have trouble finding beef bacon. What fat would you recommend substituting for the bacon fat?
Cristina says
You can use ghee, coconut oil or duck fat
