Hey so I found these recipes on bodybuilding.com and I figured I'd share. I made the second one which is a tomato turkey burger with cucumbers on top. I gotta say it was more than amazing and very healthy as well. I skipped on the Mayo portion just to avoid those calories. Really easy to make too. Enjoy!!! (if you dont want to go in the link I also posted the recipe, but the picture is what makes you want it lol)
