Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground turkey
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 4 pieces whole wheat hamburger buns
- 1 piece ripe avocado
- 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
- 1 piece medium-sized tomato
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat a grill pan or skillet over medium heat.
In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until the ingredients are just combined.
Form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties.
Place the patties on the preheated grill pan and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the patties are cooking, halve the avocado, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a small bowl. Mash it with a fork, then stir in the dried oregano, dried basil, and lemon juice to make a spread.
Slice the tomato into thin rounds.
In a non-stick skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and fry them until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 3-4 minutes.
Slice the hamburger buns and lightly toast them on a separate dry skillet or toaster.
To assemble the burgers: spread a generous layer of the avocado herb spread on the bottom half of each bun. Top with a layer of fresh spinach leaves, a turkey patty, a fried egg, and a slice of tomato. Cover with the top half of the bun.
Serve immediately for a warm and delightful low sodium breakfast burger.
