Made some changes, in lieu of bread crumbs, I just finely crushed up some saltine crackers and added and used ground turkey meat. Also added a hint of salt and pepper with a generous addition of garlic. Let them sit in the frig for 2 days and the flavors were awesome. My whole frig was fragrant with the garlic and herbs, even being covered. Baked in the oven at 375 F until the 165 F in the middle and then moved forward with the marinara and mozz. These would be great prepped and then frozen as in the recipe. Can't wait to do it. Didn't place on the bread, just served with some beautiful grilled zucchini. Raves all aound for this dish. These would make great meatballs also because the flavor is extraordinary. I think the resting time in the frig really brought the flavors together.","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":5,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2014-05-20","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"GreenTrumpet"},"reviewBody":"Tasty burgers but we found the bread hard to eat.
