Submitted by: dlife
Source: Chef Michel Nischan
10 oz ground turkey
2 Tbsp silken tofu
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp ground garlic
Canola oil in a spray bottle
6 slices avocado
2 Tbsp non-fat sour cream
4 leaves of fresh leaf lettuce, each about the size of a burger
Combine the ground turkey, cumin and garlic in a bowl and mix
well. Form into two patties. Heat a medium non-stick skillet
over medium heat. Mist both sides of each burger with canola
oil (about 1 teaspoon total). Place the burgers in the skillet
and cook 3-1/2 minutes or until. Transfer to a pre-heated 350
degree oven and bake five minutes or until cooked through.
Let stand five minutes to cool slightly. Place each burger on
a piece of leaf lettuce. Top each burger with three slices of
avocado and a tablespoon of sour cream. Top each burger with
the remaining slices of leaf lettuce and dig-in!
