INGREDIENTS

6 oz 93% lean ground turkey

1 oz blue cheese crumbles

2 tbsp buffalo hot sauce

0.5 cup nonfat Greek yogurt

1 tsp avocado oil

2 large leaves butter lettuce leaves

0.25 cup shredded carrots

0.25 cup sliced celery

0.25 tsp garlic powder

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

PREPARATION

• 1

  In a medium bowl, combine the ground turkey, garlic powder, sea salt, black pepper, and 1 tablespoon of the buffalo hot sauce.

• 2

  Form the mixture into a thick patty and gently press half of the blue cheese crumbles into the center, sealing the meat around them.

• 3

  Heat the avocado oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer.

• 4

  Place the patty in the skillet and sear for 5-6 minutes per side until a golden-brown crust forms and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

• 5

  While the burger cooks, whisk the nonfat Greek yogurt with the remaining 1 tablespoon of buffalo hot sauce in a small bowl until smooth.

• 6

  Toss the shredded carrots and sliced celery together in a small bowl to create a crunchy slaw.

• 7

  Arrange the butter lettuce leaves on a plate, place the cooked burger inside, and top with the carrot-celery slaw, the remaining blue cheese crumbles, and a generous drizzle of the buffalo yogurt sauce.
