A juicy turkey burger with a hint of red bell peppers, garlic and onions, topped with with fresh spinach, ripe red tomatoes and alfalfa sprouts and drizzled with a special avocado-artichoke dressing. Served on two slices of toasted sourdough bread, it's a burger any Californian could groove on. And that ain't no jive. Ingredients:
1 lb ground turkey |
4 garlic cloves, minced |
1/4 cup red onion, minced |
1/4 cup red bell pepper, minced |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup cheese, grated (use a sharp cheddar, or pepper jack) |
1 egg, beaten |
1/2 cup breadcrumbs (panko-style if possible) |
1 avocado, ripe and smashed |
1/2 cup nonfat yogurt (strained greek-style is great) |
1 tablespoon lemon juice, fresh |
1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce |
1/4 cup artichoke heart, minced |
1 tomato, seeded and chopped |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper, ground |
Directions:
1. Make dressing: combine all ingredients in a blender or food processor and process until smooth, but not too smooth (a few chunks are nice).
2. Make burgers: Combine all ingredients and form 4-8 patties (depending on what size you want).
3. Grill patties on outdoor grill, or pan-fry them if you don't have a grill.
4. Serve on toasted sourdough bread with liberal helpings of avocado/artichoke dressing. Serve with baby spinach, sliced red onion and/or tomato, and alfalfa sprouts.
