I added Indian Curry Turkey Burgers to my meal prep rotation.
Theyre mostly for me cuz my husbean prefers red meat in burger form, not turkey.
Although, I did make these for lunch the other day and I didnt hear any complaints.
So, theres hope. I think its cuz I added a whole bunch of jalapenos to his
If you like turkey burgers, check these beauties out.
A mix of curry. turmeric, cumin & cilantro and were talking!
Scroll down and Ill show you how Ive been eating them since Im kinda trying to not eat bread at this current moment in time.
Lets gather our ingredients.
It all gets mashed together!
For the onions, I found that I liked them grated better than chopped. Use a cheese grater.
Try not to cry about it. They are chopped in this photo. Disregard that.
Ok, we are ready to shape into patties.
This is a step you can do ahead of time. So if youre not ready to cook them, cover them up and keep them in the fridge.
You can make 4 big burgers and 5 average-sized burgers and 6 medium-sized ones.
I go for the 6 so I can stretch it out.
Cook them in a skillet with some olive oil. Make sure they are cooked through.
Now you can put them aside for your meal prep
TADA!
Or serve them up right away! I made mine with lettuce for buns.
I also mixed up a yogurt/cucumber dip to top these.
Mango chutney would be delicious as well. I might play around with adding jalapenos to the mixture in my next batch.
But I really just like them over rice with a bunch of lemon and cilantro.
Also pairs well with a side salad.
Id also serve them with naan! I think I have a garlic naan recipe somewhere
Or just eat them coldstanding in your kitchen staring off into space as I do.
Anyways, if you see these in my #shutterbeanmealprep for a bit, its because Im kinda obsessed.
Maybe youll see why.
