This Meal Prep Turkey Burger Salad is a fun twist on this! You can use any lean ground protein for the burgers. We like turkey, we're not beef eaters so that's what we used.
No breading needed on the inside. Just a little extra virgin olive oil to add in some healthy fat with garlic for heart health and parmesan for more calcium.
The parmesan is what makes everything stick together and gives the burgers a slightly nutty taste. It's delicious!
For the dressing, I mixed together ketchup and mustard with a few seasonings. Hey, they get mixed on your plate anyway!
It's a great low calorie dressing alternative. You can customize your Meal Prep Turkey Burger Salads any way that works for you. The point is to lightened it up and make it a healthier option!

What I Used For The Recipe
Loved this! Such an easy meal prep but crazy delicious! What pickles do you use? I prefer Bubbies pickles cause I don't like that vinegary taste. Thanks for sharing!
