Quick Chipotle Burgers
March 23rd, 2009
Here's another great recipe from Men's Health. (At least they get some of this stuff right!)
serves 2
If you're a burger freak like me, you can make 3 or 4 of these and keep them in the fridge for an even quicker burger later in the weak. 
- 8oz of lean ground meat (use beef, turkey, chicken, and my favorite, deer)
- 2 whole wheat buns**
- 1/2 avocado, sliced
- 2 tbsp chipotle salsa
- salt and pepper
- pinch of cumin
- 1/2 red onion sliced
- 2 tbsp low fat sour cream
- Mix the meat, salt and pepper, and cumin and form into 2 patties.
- Pre-heat a skillet over med-high heat. Spray with Pam, or add some coconut oil, and add burgers, cooking for 4-5 minutes per side.
- Dress each bun with avocado slices, tomato, and red onion. Top with burger, salsa and sour cream.
** If you absolutely must have the buns go for it. If you'd like to try something a little different, wrap your burger in 2 lettuce leaves. Use the greener, outer leaves of Iceberg lettuce or Boston or Bibb lettuce. These leaves are more flexible and make a tasty substitute for the buns.
