March Meal Prep: Rustic Turkey Burgers

 

We love burgers!  Did you know that we will have a burger mania coming up?  Watch FB for that information. Most of our recipes makes six servings.  This makes four.  I used 99% lean ground turkey rather than the 93%.   Also, we just ate it as a patty rather than as a sandwich.

Ingredients:

• 1 lb 93% lean ground turkey (or beef)
• 1/2 c chopped fresh baby spinach leaves
• 1/2 chopped fresh button mushrooms
• 1 large egg, beaten
• 2 tsp Rustic Herb Seasoning
• 2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar, divided
• 1 large tomato, sliced
• 1 ripe avocado, pitted, peeled and sliced
• 2 c fresh arugula leaves
• 1/2 tsp Seasoned Salt

Directions:

• In large bowl, combine first 5 ingredients and 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar.  Form into 4 patties.

• Separate each patty with wax paper.  Place in freezer bag.

Cooking:

• Thaw, if frozen.
• Prepare grill to medium heat.  Place patties on grill.  Grill, turning once, until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F on an instant-read food thermometer, about 8-10 minutes.
  
• Place tomatoes and avocados on plates.  Top with burgers and arugula.  Drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar and sprinkle with Seasoned Salt.
