BUFFALO TURKEY BURGERS
These are a fun, delicious addition to any seasonal menu. They are simple, quite tasty and help you easily create a balanced meal. Serve with a side salad, on top of a salad or wrap it up with lettuce leaves — and stuff it with tomatoes, onions, avocado, etc. Are they resilient? No, but YOU are resilient!
Equipment
- grill
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground turkey
- ¼ cup bread crumbs You could toast whole grain bread and whirl in the Cuisinart, or go with pre-made bread crumbs. Pre-made bread crumbs are higher in sodium.
- 3 green onions chopped into small pieces
- ¼ cup buffalo wing sauce
- 2 Tablespoons blue cheese crumbles
- 4 whole grain flatbread rolls like Arnold’s 100-calorie or whole wheat buns; all optional
- Lettuce pieces or Boston lettuce leaves to fully wrap burgers
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to medium heat.
- In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, bread crumbs, onions, buffalo wing sauce and blue crumbles, mixing well. Shape turkey mixture into 4 patties (always best to divide mixture into equal portions first).
- Place burgers on grill and cook for about 4–5 minutes per side.
- Serve on flatbread, hamburger buns, lettuce wrap or on top of salad.
Notes
Makes 4 servings.
