Ingredients

  • 1 cup cold leftover white or brown rice
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 (15-ounce) can pinto beans, rinsed and drained
  • Palmful chili powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons, half a palmful, cumin
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons coriander, half a palmful
  • 1 tablespoon grill seasoning, (recommended: Montreal Seasoning by McCormick)
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 1 clove garlic, grated or finely chopped
  • 1 lime, zested and juiced
  • 1 jalapeno or serrano pepper, seeded and finely chopped
  • 1/2 small red onion, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 4 red leaf lettuce leaves
  • 1 ripe tomato, sliced
  • 4 crusty rolls, split

Directions

Combine rice, meat and beans with spices and grill seasoning. Form 4 big patties from the meat and bean mixture then heat 1 tablespoon oil, a turn of the pan, in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook patties 7 to 8 minutes on each side.

While burgers cook, combine avocado with garlic, lime zest and juice, jalapeno and red onion. Mash to roughly combine, then stir in the sour cream.

Place burgers on buns with lettuce and tomato and top with sour cream guacamole.

    I've made this entire menu a few times, and we love it! I usually make anywhere from 6 to 8 burgers with it. Since it's just my husband and me, I freeze the extra. Then I get to listen to my husband ask several times a week, "When can we have the Burrito Burgers again?" Moist, easy and delicious! I do mash up the beans a bit so they blend in more easily.

    To those who called it bland, did you maybe substitute pepper for the grill seasoning? Remember, grill seasoning has the salt, so if you used pepper, you'll need to add extra salt-- to taste.

    We're not fans of ground turkey, but since there were plenty of spices, we did not miss the ground beef. I made a few modifications, but used the spices as listed. I was filling lazy and decided not to form these into patties, and just browned the turkey with the spices and added the beans to the skillet. I skipped the rice because we didn't have any on hand. After it was cooked, I spread the guacamole (made as directed, except omitted the sour cream to reduce the fat and calories on a tortilla and sprinkled it with the cooked turkey and bean mixture. I topped our burritos with a little reduced fat cheese and cilantro. Yummy; will make again.

    These are excellent! Easy, quick, and very affordable. My husband enjoyed these a great deal and he is NOT a burger fan. I'm a huge fan so I am tickled to have found these. Thanks, Rachel!
