Thai Peanut Turkey Burgers

Everyone knows I love peanut butter, so when I saw a recipe that added peanut butter to a turkey burger of course I had to try it.  I ate my burger over a bed of romaine lettuce with grilled sweet onions, banana peppers, and red bell peppers and a Thai peanut butter dressing.  I can’t wait to eat the leftovers! If you like burgers on a bun you could just as easily eat this on a bun with veggies or dressings of your preference.

Ingredients:

1 pound lean ground turkey breast

½ cup natural peanut butter

½ cup grated carrots

1 lime zested and juiced

½ tablespoon reduced sodium soy sauce

½ tablespoon finely grated fresh ginger

½ tablespoon fresh cilantro

Thai peanut dressing

I served this with romaine lettuce and grilled banana and bell peppers

Directions:

1. Mix all ingredients for burger in a large bowl.  Do not overmix.
2. Divide mixture into 4 patties.
3. Freeze patties for 30 minutes prior to grilling to help solidify them.
4. Preheat grill to high heat.
5. Grill for 5 minutes per side.
6. Serve on a bun or over a salad with fresh or grilled vegetables.
7. Enjoy!
