Black Bean Cilantro Turkey Burgers
I must admit I didn’t think this would ever happen. Hubby has actually requested Turkey Burgers on more than one occasion. I have to thank Joelen for that! I’ve made her Cilantro Turkey Burgers more than once since I tried out the recipe. We both love it. I like to make 4 patties at a time and freeze the other two for a quick dinner some other day.
We had some leftover red onion and 1/2 a can of black beans. I didn’t want to let them go to waste so I thought they might go well in the turkey burger. I gave it a shot and they turned out great! 
I just chopped up the onion and beans in my food processor and mixed it into the turkey mixture prior to forming the patties. I cooked them on our griddle and served them with sliced avocado on top and sweet potato home fries. 
I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 
I’m always looking for new ways to prepare salmon, too, and I love the idea of herbed mustard!
this looks so flavorful and juicy! delish 🙂
Jeff doesn’t love salmon, but I bet I could get him to eat it with this topping. Sounds so flavorful!
This looks amazing! I have everything for the sauce already other than the Dijon Mustard. Do you think I can use regular mustard?

It would definitely have a different flavor profile, but I love regular mustard! I think it would be great – let me know what you think of it.
Made this last night! SO good! My boyfriend and i both finished our plates and he declared this recipe as a keeper! Thanks so much for keeping it easy!
