Salsa Verde Turkey Burgers

It’s been awhile. Shame on me. Wednesday James and I had a horrific dinner at Top of the Hub (yes, horrific). Thursday I had Funfetti cake for dinner. So tonight was salsa verde turkey burger night! What you’ll need:

  • 1 lb ground turkey meat
  • 1/2 cup salsa verde + extra for garnish
  • 1 avocado
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • buns
  • cheddar cheese (optional)
  • Tomato, sliced

Mix together the turkey meat and salsa verde in a bowl. Form four patties. Cook on high heat for 10 – 12 minutes (or until the middle is not pink. You do not want a raw turkey burger. You just don’t). While these are cooking, quarter the avocado and mash in a bowl with lemon juice and garlic. Chop up your tomato. Get your cheese ready.

Once done, place on bun. Smear about 1/4 cup of “guacamole” on your burger. Layer on about 2 tbsp salsa verde. Toss on some tomatoes and top off with cheese. Serve with grilled asparagus spears.
