Bring ’em to the table for a healthy dinner they’ll love with a Grilled Turkey Burger Board! Flavorful turkey burgers and perfectly crisp sweet potato fries, plus all the fixings–it’s a dinner winner!
A Healthy Dinner They’ll Gobble-Gobble Up
It’s burger night done light! As much as we love our favorite burgers, sometimes we just want something a little… lighter. So I love this Grilled Turkey Burger Board as much for everything it is (delicious, easy, family-friendly) as for everything it’s not (heavy or fried).
Turkey burgers are so moist and flavorful. You won’t miss ground beef for one second. And these burgers are perfectly seasoned to give great flavor without all the grease.
Pick Your Fixings
What do you like to put on your burger? That’s what you should include on the board. We like to pile ours high with avocado, red onion, tomatoes and fresh lettuce. I also like to make sure the board has all the condiments like mustard, honey mustard, ketchup and mayonnaise.
And these baked-not-fried sweet potato fries are so crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. They’re everything a fry should be!
And when you put them together on a board with all the fresh and fabulous fixings, it’s a healthy dinner your whole family will gobble-gobble up. Get it? Gobble gobble? I’m here all week, folks!
