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.

This looks like such a perfect summer salad. I would definitely add a ton of cilantro. I love it!
Looks perfect. Yum.
Your pictures look great! I am glad you liked this – I need to make it again soon!
oh Yum, I will have to try this. Way to improvise in the kitchen, looks like your kitchen is still in the works.
I have seen this recipe floating around and I must try it!
I’m in so long as I can pick out the tomatoes! 🙂 Not a fan of them.
Btw, I made your 40 clove chicken in the slow cooker…..HOLY COW, was that good and so easy (best part)! I’d made it before but a different recipe and not in the slow cooker. My honey actually put it all in the crockpot. My Mom loved it!

I saved this from Colleen’s site, too. It looks so good. A perfect summer salad!
It is so good. For anyone who’s thinking about making it. DO IT! I also made it again the other day. I didn’t have an avocado around, so I just mixed in a packet of Wholly Guacomole instead. It was delicious.
YUMMY! It looks great and perfect for the summer!
Update! I made this and added a few additional ingredients. I love it!
