Recipes for Ground Turkey – Southwestern Turkey Burger

Ground turkey is a great alternative to beef. It absorbs flavors wonderfully and is also healthier. These burgers are really, really good! I hope you enjoy them! Here is what you need to do for this:

In a bowl mix together the following:

• 1 pound ground turkey
• 2 minced garlic cloves
• I seeded and finely chopped jalapeño
• ½ cup chopped cilantro
• 1 TBS chili powder
• ½ TBS cumin
• ½ cup bread crumbs
• Salt & Pepper
Mix well and for 4 equal patties.

Heat your grill to high and spray with some olive oil. Place the patties on the grill. Reduce the heat to medium. Cook for 5 minutes and flip. Cook for 2 minutes. Cover with Pepper Jack cheese and cook for an extra 3 minutes.

While the meat is cooking, mix ½ cup salsa with 1 TBS mayonnaise.

Smear the inside of a Kaiser roll with y our sauce. On the top piece, place a lettuce leaf, a tomato slice and a slice of red onion. Place the cooked burger on the other and cover. Enjoy!
