Sweet Potato Turkey Burger

Sweet Potato Turkey Burger

4 Servings

Ingredients:

• 1 package of Organic Ground Turkey 16 oz
• 1 to 2 Large Sweet Potatoes
• 3 Sprigs of Kale (any kind, I prefer purple curly kale)
• 1 Avocado

Seasoning for Ground Turkey:

• 1/3 Fresh Yellow Onion
• 1 Fresh Small Shallot
• 2 Tablespoons Red Chili Pepper Flakes
• 1 Tablespoon Garlic Powder
• 1 Tablespoon Onion Powder
• 1 Tablespoon Ground Pepper
• 1/2 Tablespoon Cayenne Pepper
• 1 Teaspoon Salt

Parsley Sauce:

• 1 Bunch Fresh Parsley
• 1/2 Lemon Juice
• 1/4 Cup Rice Vinegar
• 1/4 Cup Olive Oil
• 2 Tablespoons Water
• 1 Teaspoon Garlic Powder
• 1 Teaspoon Red Chili Pepper Flakes
• Salt to taste

Preheat the oven to 375 F

1. In a food processor blend all the ingredients for the parsley sauce together until pureed and set aside.
2. Dice the yellow onion and the shallot well.
3. In a large bowl mix the ground turkey, onion, shallot  and seasoning for the ground turkey.
4. Make the ground turkey into small patties (make them a little smaller than your “sweet potato buns”). Bake for 30 minutes or until thoroughly cooked.
5. Slice you sweet potato (as seen in photo above) about 1/2 inch thick.
6. On a cookie sheet, add parchment paper and lay out your sliced sweet potatoes side by side. Drizzle oil and add salt and pepper to taste. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes.
7. Stack patty, drizzle or drench parsley sauce, add avocado slices, kale and top with the sweet potato bun 🙂
