Total time:
Serves: 4
- 1.25 lbs ground turkey
- A couple splashes of Tabasco sauce
- 2 tsp paprika
- 1-2 Tbsp feta cheese
- 2 Tbsp shredded Mozzarella, Cheddar or Jack cheese
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp salt
- 1-2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
- *For a spicier version add 1-2 tsp chopped jalapeño or serrano peppers
- Hamburger Buns
- Avocado slices or guacamole
- Blue cheese crumbles
- Dijon mustard
- Sautéed mushrooms
- Sautéed purple onions
- Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl and form patties.
- Cook the patties on the stove top, broil them in the oven or grill them on the BBQ.
- In the oven and on the stove top it took about 5 minutes on each side but cook time will vary depending on the thickness of the burger.
- Melt a slice of cheese on top of the meat if desired.
- Lightly toast the buns on the grill or in the oven. I like melting the cheese on both halves of the bun rather than on the meat.
- Top with the ingredients and condiments of your choice.
- Serve the avocado turkey burgers with pasta salad or potato salad for the quintessential summer meal.
