Southwest Turkey Burgers with Creamy Cilantro Dipping Sauce

This recipe was originally a meatball recipe but I was in the mood for a burger. I took my indoor panini maker and made these bad boys. They were delicious!

Ingredients

For the burgers

1 Pound of ground turkey (or chicken, beef, etc.)
½ Green bell pepper, finely chopped
2 Garlic cloves, minced
½ Jalapeño, minced
1 Teaspoon of cumin
½ Teaspoon of chili powder
¼ Teaspoon of smoked paprika
Goya seasoning

For the sauce
1/2 of Avocado
Handful of cilantro, roughly chopped
Juice of ½ lime
1 Teaspoon of lemon juice
Pinch of salt and pepper
¼ Cup of mayo (I used soy free veganise)

Directions

1. Preheat the grill and spray it with cooking spray
2. Place all ingredients for the meatballs into a bowl and use your hands to mix the mixture together
3. Form into patties and place each patty into on the grill
4. Grill until cooked through
5. While the burgers cook, create the dipping sauce by placing everything for the sauce, except for the mayo, into a food processor. Puree until smooth. Once smooth, add the mayo and puree once more until well combined
