A lighter take on a classic burger, this Healthy Burger Bowl features spiced ground turkey, creamy avocado mayo, and fresh vegetables.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup avocado mayo
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon pickle juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (for sauce)
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder (for sauce)
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika (or chili powder)
  • Pinch salt and pepper
  • 4 cups chopped romaine lettuce
  • 1/2 cup sliced cherry tomatoes
  • 1/3 cup sliced red onion
  • 1/3 cup sliced pickles
  • 1/3 cup cooked, chopped bacon (optional)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Prepare the turkey patties: In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, kosher salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined. Shape into burger-sized patties, about half an inch thick.
  2. Cook the patties: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Once hot, place the patties carefully in the pan. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they become golden brown and cooked through.
  3. Whisk together the burger sauce: In a medium bowl, combine the avocado mayo, ketchup, Dijon mustard, pickle juice, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix until smooth and well blended. Set aside.
  4. Assemble your healthy burger bowls: In each bowl, lay down a generous handful of chopped romaine lettuce. Top with sliced cherry tomatoes, red onion, and pickles. Crumble the cooked turkey patties on top, drizzle generously with the burger sauce, and finally, finish with a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese and bacon if using.

Notes

Use a lean turkey to keep the bowls healthy. Ensure your patty is cooked through to an internal temperature of 165°F for safety. Feel free to swap out romaine for spinach or any greens you prefer.
