Southwest Turkey Burgers

1 # ground turkey
1/2 C smashed tortilla chips (I use plain Tostito's - not flavored ones)
1 Egg
1 jalapeno, seeded/minced
1/2 tsp Cholula sauce (bottled hot sauce - not as hot as Tabasco and, in my opinion, better flavor)
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp chili powder
Mix all together and form patties.  It will be sticky.

Grill the burgers until cooked through (rare is not an option - cook them until they are done).   Place a strip (or two) of cooked bacon over each and top with a slice of pepper jack cheese.  just keep over the heat until melted. 

We serve these on Orowheat Sandwich Thins (in whole wheat) - the burgers are really filling and it's a healthier option.

Top each burger with any combination of the following:
Lettuce
Tomatoes
Avocado
Mayonnaise

As a side, we do a salad of:
1 can black beans, drain/rinse
1 can corn, drained
1 cup chopped fresh tomatoes
1 bunch Cilantro, rinsed & chopped
1 TB minced red onion
1 jalapeno, seeded/minced
1/2 tsp ground cumin
juice of one lime

An easy dinner for a weeknight and actually (well, if you skip the bacon) pretty healthy.

Hope you like it!
