From our skinny table to yours...

So, we were watching 'Next Food Network Star' (which we are obsessed with because we want our own cooking show) and they were doing a Best Burger Contest.  We clearly pretend we are on the show whenever we watch and we were coming up with the burgers we would've wanted to prepare.  One of our ideas was a Mexican Spiced Turkey Burger stuffed with Mexican Cheese.  We would of course make this healthy because that's what we do ;)  And this is exactly what we did!

We're going to go ahead and say we would have knocked it out of the park with this one!  They were so freaking good and super easy too!  Simply saute up peppers, onions, corn, jalapeno, and garlic up with cumin, chili powder and fresh cilantro.  Then mix this Mexican Spiced veggie combo into your 99% lean ground turkey meat.  We added in a touch of egg white, lime juice and panko bread crumbs for easy patty forming!

We didn't stop here, we stuffed each burger with 1 tbsp of reduced fat Mexican cheese and then topped each burger with freshly sliced tomato and avocado!  YUM :)  Delicious and super healthy, that's our favorite combo.

Hope you enjoy :)
