My sister makes these and they are pretty much amazing. These burgers are a highly requested item when she comes around! She taught me how to make them, too, so when she isn't around our family can get their fix. Ingredients:
1 lb ground turkey breast |
1 green bell pepper (chopped) |
1 white onion (chopped) |
1 egg |
1 (2 ounce) package taco seasoning |
4 slices monterey jack pepper cheese |
4 whole grain buns |
3 -4 avocados (mashed) |
2 tablespoons garlic salt |
2 roma tomatoes (diced) |
8 -10 black olives (sliced) |
3 tablespoons feta cheese (crumbled) |
1/2 lemon, juice of |
Directions:
1. Spray a medium saucepan with cooking spray and sautee bell peppers and onions until tender. Set aside.
2. Using your hands, combine ground turkey, egg, taco seasoning, peppers and onions in a mixing bowl.
3. Form into four patties and grill until cooked all the way through. You may also choose to cook in a deep skillet on the stove, if desired. When nearly cooked, place a slice of pepperjack cheese on top to melt.
4. While burgers are cooking, prepare guacamole.
5. Combine all guacamole ingredients in a medium mixing bowl.
6. Serve burgers on buns and topped with a heaping scoop of guacamole. Make sure to have tortilla chips on hand for any left over guac!
