SOUTHWEST TURKEY BURGERS
Most of the turkey burgers that I have had were overcooked and flavorless. This recipe was inspired by some friends of ours that put a Southwest spin on the burger. With a few tweaks these Southwest turkey burgers have become a staple recipe in our house. The patty is flavorful and plays well with some creamy guacamole and spicy salsa.

- Combine turkey, eggs, onion, bread crumbs, 2 tablespoons oil, jalapenos, Worcestershire, mustard, paprika, chili powder, and cumin in a bowl. Form into 8 patties. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Heat remaining olive oil in a saute pan over medium to medium-high heat. Place patties in the hot pan and cover partially to help retain moisture, but not so much that the patties braise (boil). Cook until browned and halfway cooked through, about 4 minutes. Continue to cook until no longer pink and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 3 minutes more.
- Serve patties on toasted buns with guacamole and salsa.

SOUTHWEST TURKEY, RICE AND BEAN STIR FRY
Easy quick and so much better than take out. I do make my own taco seasoning, but you can easily use just a package seasoning which makes this even easier. Sour cream makes this dish creamy and garnish with your favorites. Cheese, avocado, chopped olives or tomatoes, any of your favorites. This is a hearty, filling, satisfying dish.

Steps:
- Rice -- Cook the rice according to the package directions (You can use any rice you want), I often use a boil in bag for convenience. I have also made this with leftover Chinese rice too.
- Turkey -- As the rice cooks, brown the turkey in a medium size pan. I love non stick for this dish. Add the olive oil to the non stick pan on medium to medium high heat and brown the turkey, breaking it up as it cooks. Cook until it is no longer pink. Remove the turkey to a plate lined with a paper towel to absorb any extra oil. Set this to the side. Keep any drippings in the pan to saute the vegetables.
- Vegetables -- Keep the heat on medium high heat and add the red pepper, green pepper, onion, and garlic and saute until the peppers become soft. It should take around 3-4 minutes.
- Beans and Seasoning -- Add the taco seasoning and water (start with 1/4 cup water, you can always add more) to the vegetables and stir well to combine. Add the beans and corn and mix well.
- Turkey -- Add the turkey back in along with the scallions, cilantro and the cooked rice.
- Finish -- Reduce the heat to medium low. Remove the pan to the side and add the sour cream and stir inches Return to the heat just to warm up. It will only take a minute.
- Serve -- Garnish with grated cheese, avocado, black olives, tomatoes or anything you want. A few nacho chips are also great served with this.

Steps:
- Chop your garlic and veggies. I throw all mine in my food processor and it makes easy work of this step.
- Combine all ingredients through grill seasoning.
- Divide mixture into 4 equal patties. Drizzle patties with olive oil to coat. Cook on grill or in skillet over med-high heat until done. (I've found that the veggies make this so moist that they're hard to overcook, although you'll still want to keep an eye on them).
- Place sliced cheese over the patties the last two minutes of cooking.
- OPTIONAL (but worth it): Slather with Black Bean Spread/Dip with Lime and Cilantro (recipe posted after this one). Enjoy the rest of the dip with tortilla chips with your burger.
