Green Chili Turkey Burgers with Guacamole in Lettuce Wraps

Here is a fantastic dinner that is really easy and the whole family will love. It is originally from the Primal Blueprint Cookbook and I took it and adapted it from Elanaspantry.com

Green Chili Turkey Burgers with Guacamole in Lettuce Wraps

2 medium-large fresh peppers, diced or 2 (4 oz.) cans diced green chiles
2 pounds ground turkey, (separated into equal parts or 2/3 to 1/3 if you have picky kids)
1 cup cilantro, finely chopped (optional)
½ cup onion, finely chopped
3 teaspoons cumin
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon celtic sea salt

1. In a medium sized bowl mix diced chiles with turkey,most of the cilantro (if using), 1/3 cup of the onion, cumin, chili powder and salt
2. In another mixing bowl, mix the other 1/3 of the turkey, the rest of the onion, a little cilantro and a couple pinches of salt. (this one is for the kids because mine wouldn’t touch the first one)
3. Form into burgers and grill
4. Serve with guacamole and lettuce wraps
5. For the kids, I put some cheese on top and served them on their favorite sandwich bread (with crusts cut off). They scarfed!!
