Turkey Burgers With Hungarian Hot Waxed Peppers
4 from 1 ratings
I was at our local farmers market this past Sunday and found Hungarian Hot Waxed Peppers. I never heard of them before and they reminded me of cubanelle peppers (which I was looking for). I asked the farmer about them and he said they do have some heat but not like a jalapeno pepper. I decided to pick up a pint and had ground turkey and this became our lunch! I made Turkey burgers with hungarian hot waxed peppers. This is a delicious paleo recipe and gluten free recipe perfect for lunch, dinner or anytime. I would even enjoy for breakfast with a fried or poached egg. If you can’t find hungarian hot wazed peppers use cubanellea, pubanelle or another desired pepper.
