Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 medium sweet potato, peeled and sliced lengthwise into 1/8-inch-thick planks
3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon olive oil
4 frozen turkey burger patties
2 cups packed kale leaves, stemmed and torn
1/2 cup salted roasted almonds
1 lemon, juiced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 avocado
1/2 cup mayonnaise
4 whole-wheat hamburger buns
1/4 cup alfalfa sprouts
1 medium beefsteak tomato, sliced into 4 pieces

Steps:

  • Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
  • Brush both sides of the sweet potato slices with 1 tablespoon of the oil. Grill the slices on one side of the grill pan until dark grill marks appear and the slices can be pierced easily with a knife, 3 to 4 minutes a side. Grill the turkey burgers on the other side of the grill pan according to the package directions for the grill.
  • Meanwhile, add the kale, almonds, lemon juice, 1 teaspoon salt, a few grinds of pepper and the remaining 3/4 cup oil to a blender. Puree, scraping the sides as needed, until smooth.
  • Mash the avocado with a fork in a medium bowl until smooth. Fold in the mayonnaise until combined.
  • Spread the kale pesto on both halves of each hamburger bun, then spread the avocado mayonnaise on top of the pesto. Top the bottom half of each bun with 1 tablespoon alfalfa sprouts and a burger patty. Top the burger patties with some sweet potato slices, a tomato slice and the top bun.

OUR FAVORITE TURKEY BURGER



Our Favorite Turkey Burger image

These tasty burgers incorporate shredded Gruyère cheese and Dijon mustard in the patty, rather than on top, which prevents the bun from getting soggy. Breadcrumbs add even more texture.

Actually Delicious Turkey Burgers image

This is a simple and delicious recipe. After making them the first time my husband said 'no more' to beef burgers. These are really good - any cooking method may be used, and they freeze very well. The recipe can also be used for meatballs or meat loaves.
