Ingredients
Directions
- Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
- Brush both sides of the sweet potato slices with 1 tablespoon of the oil. Grill the slices on one side of the grill pan until dark grill marks appear and the slices can be pierced easily with a knife, 3 to 4 minutes a side. Grill the turkey burgers on the other side of the grill pan according to the package directions for the grill.
- Meanwhile, add the kale, almonds, lemon juice, 1 teaspoon salt, a few grinds of pepper and the remaining 3/4 cup oil to a blender. Puree, scraping the sides as needed, until smooth.
- Mash the avocado with a fork in a medium bowl until smooth. Fold in the mayonnaise until combined.
- Spread the kale pesto on both halves of each hamburger bun, then spread the avocado mayonnaise on top of the pesto. Top the bottom half of each bun with 1 tablespoon alfalfa sprouts and a burger patty. Top the burger patties with some sweet potato slices, a tomato slice and the top bun.
