Chipotle Turkey Burgers with Summer Fruit Salsa
Posted by Olivia on Wed, June 15, 2011
This weekend, serve a Father’s Day feast that’s great for the barbecue as well as the heart. Forgo the usual beef burgers (and the fat and cholesterol that comes with them) and instead try out our recipe for Chipotle Turkey Burgers. We promise; Pop won’t be disappointed.
Made with our new Smoky Chipotle Grilling Sauce, these burgers look and taste like beef burgers, and they hold up perfectly to the grill. Topped with a fresh summer fruit salsa, heart-healthy avocados, and served on a whole grain bun, these prove that you can have your bold, hearty burger and eat it, too. This is one manly burger that the whole family will appreciate.
