Fajita Turkey Burgers
 "You can use prechopped onions and bell peppers so the burgers come together even more quickly. Garnish with fresh lettuce, tomato, and red onion."

Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup bottled salsa of your choice, the hotter and spicier the better.
  • 2 tablespoons chopped avocado.
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro.
  • 2 one ounce slices white bread.
  • Cooking spray of your choice.
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped onion.
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped red bell pepper.
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped green bell pepper.
  • 2 teaspoons Old El Paso fajita seasoning mix, divided.
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt, divided.
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste.
  • 1 pound fresh ground turkey.
  • 1 egg white.
  • 4 whole wheat hamburger buns or Kiaser rolls, toasted.

Directions
  1. Combine salsa, chopped avocado, and cilantro; set aside.
  2. Place bread in a food processor; pulse 10 times or until crumbs measure 1 cup.
  3. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add onion and bell peppers; sauté 5 minutes or until tender. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon fajita seasoning and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Cool.
  4. Combine breadcrumbs, onion mixture, remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons fajita seasoning, remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt, tomato paste, turkey, and egg white in a large bowl. Using damp hands, divide turkey mixture into 4 equal portions, shaping each into a 3/4-inch-thick patty.
  5. Heat pan over medium heat. Recoat pan with cooking spray. Add patties; cook 4 minutes on each side or until done. Place 1 patty on bottom half of each bun. Top each serving with 1 1/2 tablespoons salsa mixture; top with remaining halves of buns.
