Mexican Burgers Recipe

1 1/2 lb ground turkey
2 tbsp ice water
2 tbsp hot salsa
1/4 cup finely crushed tortilla chips, low-fat
2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp chili powder

Serving size: 3-4 oz

Crushed tortilla chips give this burger a great texture and an interesting
bite!

Prepare an outside grill with an oiled rack set 4 inches above the heat
source. On a gas grill, set the heat to high. Combine the meat with the
remaining ingredients. Shape into 6 patties. Grill the burgers, turning
once, for a total of 8 to 10 minutes until the turkey is white throughout.

This Mexican Burgers recipe is part of our category which lists diabetic Burger recipes. Because we have no knowledge of your peculiar health issues & the advice your medical team has provided, we we cannot say whether this Mexican Burgers recipe is suitable for you. All the same, because the recipe author designated it as `diabetic` it suggest that it at least complies with the basic precondition for the label `diabetic`, being low in fat and carbs and therefore, should be better for you than the non-diabetic equivalent recipe. Despite that, this Mexican Burgers recipe must only be used if you understand your own condition and are happy that the recipe ingredients are acceptable for you.

It would be completely unthinkable for us to prepare every one of the diabetic Burger recipes to certify that all of them are totally modified for diabetics. Our site has thousands of diabetic recipes listed, and to check each of them at the rate of 4 or 5 a weeek would occupy us for nearly 72 months. We strongly advise you to analyse the nutritional content with care to confirm that all of them comply with the diabetes nutritional guidelines your nutritionalist has provided. If you find that this Mexican Burgers recipe is unsuitable, then kindly let us know and we will change or remove the offending recipe from the diabetic recipe collection.
