Turkey Burger Sliders

My dad LOVES making Turkey burgers. It has pretty much replaced regular burgers in our home and I'm okay with it. I think they are just as delicious! Luke on the other hand is a red meat lover and a skeptic regarding turkey burgers. Grocery shopping this weekend, we were trying to figure out what we should have for dinner on Saturday. Luke received a grill for his birthday this summer so we had to make sure we used it this weekend. I don't know how I did it...but I convinced him we needed to make turkey burgers! You know what? He LOVED them!

Ingredients:
  • 1 pound ground turkey meat
  • Salt, pepper, chili powder, garlic powder
  • 1 tomato
  • 1 onion
  • 1/2 avocado
  • 2 tbsp mayo
  • cheddar cheese
  • 4 mini-ciabatta rolls (or any kind of slider roll)
Directions:
  1. Add seasoning to turkey meat...season to taste
  2. Form ground turkey into slider-sized patties
  3. Slice 1/2 onion and saute until tender and brown
  4. Dice 1/2 tomato and onion for pico-style topping
  5. Combine 1/2 avocado and mayo and mix together
  6. Have boyfriend grill up sliders and add cheese when almost finished
  7. Toast ciabatta rolls until warm
  8. Spread avocado mixture on bottom bun
  9. Add tomato-onion mixture on top
  10. Add burger and top with sautéed onions

I think we definitely underestimated how delicious these sliders were going to be. I had a 3rd one but we ran out of sautéed onions and it just wasn't the same without them. These were seriously so good! Move over Dad, we can make turkey burgers too!
