    These turkey burgers are full of Mexican spices and lime zest, making them anything but boring. They're topped with ripe avocado and a sprinkle of Cotija cheese and served alongside a warm and colorful salad.

    I had Dino fire up the grill to cook the burgers and toast the buns, but I do like the fact that the recipe has you use one pan to cook the entire meal. Less mess is always a good thing, especially on a busy weeknight.

    Mexican-Style Turkey Burger with Warm Corn-Tomato Salad

    These were some of the tastiest turkey burgers we've had. They didn't dry out and the flavors worked really well together. I really liked the salad that went alongside, and it made enough to save a little to snack on the next day. Yum!

    3 Scallions
    2 Ears Corn
    2 Ounces Cotija Cheese
    1 Avocado
    1 Large Bunch Cilantro
    1 Lime
    1 Tomato
    10 Ounces Ground Turkey
    1 Teaspoon Mexican Spice Blend (Ancho Chili Powder, Ground Chipotle, Garlic Powder & Ground Cumin)
    ¼ Cup Panko Breadcrumbs
    2 Potato Buns

    See Blue Apron for the full recipe.
