Ready in about minutes or less!
- 1 1/4 pounds ground turkey breast
- 1 shallot, minced
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 2 tablespoons cilantro, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon fresh-cracked black pepper
- 4 slices of smoked cheddar
- 1 small red onion, sliced into 1/4-inch thick rings
- 1 large tomato, sliced into 1/4-inch thick rounds
- 1 cup baby arugula or spinach
- 1/4 cup chipotle “ketchup” (recipe below)
- Dijon mustard
- 4 hamburger buns (I usually use whole-wheat), split open
-
- Prepare the grill.
| | Combine the turkey, shallot, garlic and cilantro, mixing gently with your hands (take care not to overwork). Score the meat into four equal portions and shape the portions into patties (make the patties slightly larger than the surface area of your buns). Sprinkle both sides of the patties with the salt and pepper. Grill the turkey burgers for 5 to 8 minutes per side, or until cooked through. When the burgers are almost done grilling, place a slice of cheese on top of each patty (the cheese will melt as the burgers finish grilling). Also place the buns, cut sides down, on the grill to toast; remove when lightly browned.
Serve the grilled patties and toasted buns along with the remaining fixings.

| Crab Alfredo | |
|
Ready in about minutes or less!
- 8 ounces dried fettucine
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- salt and black pepper to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 2 cups half-and-half
- 1 (4 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 8 ounces crabmeat, flaked
| | Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain. Keep warm and covered.
Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until garlic releases its aroma, about 2 minutes, being careful not to let the garlic brown. Stir in the flour, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper. Reduce heat, and cook, stirring constantly for about 2 minutes. Add the half-and-half and stir over medium heat until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes.
Add the cream cheese and Parmesan cheese to the sauce and stir until cheeses melt and mixture is smooth. Mix in the crabmeat and continue cooking until crabmeat is heated through, about 3 minutes.
Divide the fettucine among 4 plates or bowls and top with the crab sauce.
