Cilantro Turkey Burgers (3 WW pts) & Sauteed Mushrooms (2 WW pts)
Hubby swears that a burger isn’t a burger unless it’s beef. That was his opinion until he ate this turkey burger. We love it and it’s now one a staple on our menu! Thanks Joelen for the recipe!
We’ve also been on a big mushroom kick recently. I love to put sauteed mushrooms on anything!
Cilantro Turkey Burgers (from Joelen)
1 pound lean ground turkey
1 half large red onion
1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro (I used about a cup – we love Cilantro!)
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (I used 2 cloves of garlic, minced)
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
olive oil
In a bowl, grate onion. This allows it to add moisture to the turkey and even cooking.
To the grated onion, add turkey, cilantro & spices.
Combine thoroughly without over handling.
Shape into 4 patties.
Heat up grill pan or grill. Add oil to lubricate grill pan/grill. Cook on grill pan/grill pan until juices run clear.

I calculated the points as 3 per turkey burger, not counting the bun or anything else you put on it.

Mmmmmmmmmmm, so warm and yummy!
I would be excited about the crockpot too. 🙂 This looks like a great recipe!
Can’t beat the ease of crockpot meals! This looks great and hearty for the winter!
That’s a pretty cool gift, and the tamale pie looks great too. I got some stupid little pin at 5 years. No idea where it is now.
I totally want to make this. Great spin away from the typical crock pot recipe!
Wow, hard to believe that recipe was made in the crockpot! It looks incredibly delicious and comforting.
