Peppered Turkey-Watercress Burgers

Rating: Unrated

If you don't care for the sharp peppery flavor of watercress, use 1 1/2 cups of finely chopped fresh spinach. Cracked black pepper is the secret ingredient in this recipe. Substituting ground black pepper for the cracked pepper will make the burgers too spicy hot.
