Though the peppers do add a good bit of moisture to the patties. I did kick up the heat a little by adding the green chilies to the burger mixture but if you weren’t feeling the heat you could totally omit.
#CHEESEBURGER MOUTH GAG FULL#
Now to me when I think of southwest flavors I think of tangy and full of flavor but not overly spicy. There was no thought of ever grinding turkey meat up as a burger but who ever thought of it. Growing up we had beef burgers, maybe deer (gag – sorry but I grew up in a family that hunted and I hate venison) and turkey was meant for holidays only. It’s funny how turkey or chicken burgers, which once were the hottest new thing in food, are now part of the norm like ‘regular’ burgers. So today you’re getting my Southwest Turkey Burgers with Roasted Tomatillo Salsa Verde recipe which seriously I ate every single day for a week and never once got tired of them because they are THAT amazing and you need to make these TODAY. Since I had just made a batch of my awesome Roasted Tomatillo Salsa Verde I opted to go with a Southwestern flare. So when I bought 5 pounds of my ground turkey mixture I knew I had to make me some mean burgers with it.

Plus you know me, everything in moderation. The dark meat is where you truly get that rich full-bodied flavor and since it’s such a low fat content I don’t have to worry too much. Now the best/healthiest ground turkey to buy is the one that is all ground white meat but again it can be dry so what I found is a healthy balance of 80% ground white turkey and 20% ground dark turkey meat. But if you’ve ever cooked with ground turkey, due to the low fat content, it can dry out rather fast. Don’t get me wrong – I LOVE me one fat juicy burger, a slab of ribs, bacon… well I’ll never divorce bacon but sadly beef doesn’t always agree with my stomach. Make sure to read the content as it contains chef tips, substitution options, and answers to FAQs to help you succeed the first time around!Īs I get older I find myself becoming less and less of a ‘beef’ eater and leaning more towards turkey/fish or veggies. Mmmmmm….Find the recipe card at the end of the post. But as you can imagine, they are SO GOOD stuffed into a roll. I served these Cheeseburger Party Meatballs finger food style. It’s much faster doing it this way rather than scooping / rolling one by one. Once it’s all scooped out, then roll them. Repeat with remaining mixture – scoop, dollop, scoop, dollop. Scoop up a heaped tablespoon and dollop onto a work surface with the flick of your wrist. Tip of the day: When making little meatballs like this, a fast way to roll the meatballs is like so: I make them using a mixture like I’m making….well, cheeseburgers. For these Cheeseburger Party Meatballs, I don’t go to such extent. For those, it is totally worth making the effort to make them extra fabulous. My Italian Meatballs are one of the most popular recipes on my site – with good reason! They’re extra juicy and extra tasty, with 2 little things I do differently that make all the difference. PS I just have to share this amazing tidbit – if you’re going to have an accident, do what I did and have it 500 meters from a hospital, with my mother in her car right there, and with our family doctor coincidentally in his car at the lights. (Putting aside the fact that it was Maccers I was crying over, not something gourmet or a hearty homemade meal!!). If that’s not a sign of a total foodie, I don’t know what is. Never cried from pain / scared being in hospital. Because I had missed out on Maccers. I still remember when I was 7 years old and got hit by a car when I was crossing a road, I was knocked unconscious and when I woke in the hospital and learned that my siblings had been treated to Maccers for dinner, I burst into tears. Regular readers know that I’ve admitted to doing the drive through of shame on the odd occasion. Who doesn’t love cheeseburgers? Real homemade ones, or even (gasp, shock horror!) McDonald’s Cheeseburgers. These are a real crowd pleaser for gatherings. And inhaled way too many of them in one sitting.
I had everything but the plastic cheeseburger cheese to make it. That sort of thing. Tasty, fun food.Īnd these Cheeseburger Party Meatballs are the first thing that popped into my mind when I found a packet of beef mince in the fridge. “Fun” being things like bite size French Toast Bites (have you tried them? They’re fabulous – and fast!), Mini Potato Gratin Stacks, Mini Pizzas made in Garlic Bread Cups. It dawned on me the other week that I haven’t shared a fun recipe in quite a while. These are great for making ahead – fully assemble them (even with the toothpicks), pack in containers and reheat for just 90 seconds in the microwave. Cheeseburger Party Meatballs! Everything you know and love about cheeseburgers – in bite size finger food form.
