These turkey and chickpea burgers are a delightful and healthyish recipe from Lindsay Maitland Hunt's cookbook, Healthyish. The chickpeas stretch the ground turkey further, making them budget-friendly and delicious. The dill Havarti cheese adds a unique flavor, and the Dijon mustard ties everything together beautifully. Perfect for freezing and enjoying anytime!
