Today started off with my second Body Pump class {wahoo! friggin’ love that workout}. Run club later with my brother, thinkin’ I’m gonna do the 5-miler today. Call the sweat squad, it’s hawt down here.

I had a few errands to run, and I also had a free smoothie coupon to redeem that was in the welcome package from my gym. After the class I ordered the “Lean Machine Passion Fruit Smoothie” a high protein bev with added fiber and nutrients. I don’t know, I was hungry, it was free…

It actually was pretty good…but I like my smoothies better :).

Today I wanted to share a recipe that I whipped up for breakfast before work yesterday. It basically came to me in a dream the night before and it was glorious. So I decided to bring it to life. I was also really excited about it because I am low on ingredients round these parts {that actually reminds me, I need to go to Trader Joe’s later}, but even though I was at the bare minimum I was still able to create it!

Enter: Spicy Naked Breakfast Burgers {They’re Naked b/c there’s no bun…}

The basis of this meal is the Turkey Burger. Soon, I plan on making a huge batch of homemade burgers and freezing them so that I can instantly make this or something like it whenever I want. Jimmy had some Turkey Burgers from TJ’s so I snuck one {oopsies, I’ll replace it laterrrr…maybe}. These babies are actually pretty decent for being prepackaged frozen burgers. Just three ingredients: Ground Turkey, Kosher Salt, and Rosemary Extract…Ta-Daa! Below are the ingredients:

1 Frozen Turkey Burger
1/8th cup of sliced red onion
1 egg
Guacamole
1 Tbsp of coconut oil for cooking
Sriracha to top

For the Guacamole:
1 Avocado
1 Tbsp of chopped Red Onion
Juice from one lemon wedge
Salt, Garlic Powder, and Pepper to Taste

Directions:

1. Begin by cooking the onions in the coconut oil. During this time, make the guac…just add all the ingredients in a bowl and mash until there’s a smooth, guacamol-ey consistency.

2. Add the burger to the skillet and cook until done, should take about 5-7 minutes. Then proceed by following the nifty four square image below.

3. Add the guac and onions, fry the egg and add the Sriracha. I only used half of the guacamole that I made. I gave Jimmy the other half {a fair trade for the Turkey Burger? Sure}.
