Mexican Turkey Burger

Ingredients

• 1/3 pound sground turkey breast
• 3/4 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
• 1/2 green poblano pepper, diced
• tablespoon seasoned salt (such as Santa Maria-style)
• tablespoon granulated onion
• hamburger buns, split
• avocados, mashed

Instructions

1. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium high heat and lightly oil the grate.
2. Mix together ground turkey, shredded cheese, poblano pepper, seasoned salt, and granulated onion in a bowl until thoroughly combined. Divide mixture into 4 portions. Roll each portion into a ball and press into a burger shape.
3. Place burgers on the preheated grill and cook, flipping once halfway through, until no longer pink in the center, about 15 minutes. An instant read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Serve on hamburger buns topped with mashed avocado.

Tips

The heat in the burger can be turned up or down by varying the amount of green pepper (or any kind of spicy pepper) you add to the mixture.
