Chili Pumpkin Turkey Burgers

I know it's the middle of summer and most people aren't thinking about pumpkins, but I've seen so many people raving about this Chili Pumpkin Turkey Meatloaf recipe from The Coconut Diaries!  I knew that I had to try it, so I decided to make this recipe summer-friendly by making burgers instead of meatloaf.
