Burgers are a weekly staple at our house year-round. Skip the fries, chips and bun—you won't need them with these loaded veggie & fruit burgers. To spice up the mayo, add 1/2 tsp. of chipotle powder. —Courtney Stultz, Weir, Kansas

Ingredients

3 tablespoons fat-free milk
2 tablespoons quick-cooking oats
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 pound lean ground turkey
4 cups baby kale salad blend
1-1/2 cups cubed fresh pineapple (1/2 inch)
1 medium mango, peeled and thinly sliced
1 medium ripe avocado, peeled and thinly sliced
1 medium sweet red pepper, cut into strips
4 tomatillos, husks removed, thinly sliced
1/4 cup reduced-fat chipotle mayonnaise

Directions

In a large bowl, mix milk, oats and seasonings. Add turkey; mix lightly but thoroughly. Shape into four 1/2-in.-thick patties.
Place burgers on an oiled grill rack over medium heat. Grill, covered, until a thermometer reads 165°, 4-5 minutes per side. Serve over salad blend, along with remaining ingredients.

Health tip: Top these burger bowls with homemade guacamole instead of chipotle mayonnaise and they’re gluten-free! Be sure to use certified gluten-free oats in the burger patties.

Test Kitchen tips

If you can't find tomatillos, try substituting green tomatoes or canned green chiles.

For a fun flavor twist, substitute curry powder for the chili powder and serve with mango chutney instead of the mayo.
