Turkey Burger

  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • ⅓ cup red onion minced
  • 2 cups cauliflower rice
  • 1 jalapeño pepper minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 ½ teaspoons cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for cooking

Toppings

  • 1/2 cup bell pepper red sliced

  • 3 oz pepper jack cheese sliced
  • 4 multigrain sandwish thins

Sides

  • 2 medium sweet potato Waffle Sliced

  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Instructions
 

  • Place turkey, onion, jalapeño, and spices together in a large bowl and mix together until all the ingredients are incorporated.
  • Lightly wet your hands and use them to shape 4 circular patties about 4 inches (10 cm) in diameter.
  • Heat up about 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat.
  • Cook burgers for 2 minutes on the first side, then flip, lower heat to low, and cook them for an additional 5-6 minutes. Top with pepper jack cheese during the last minute.
