Ingredients

  • Extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 Large onion, diced
  • 1-1/2 pounds lean ground turkey
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 cups of ketchup
  • 1/4 cup yellow mustard
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 Tbs brown sugar
  • 2 Tbs tomato paste
  • 1 Tbs apple cider vinegar
  • 5 whole wheat hamburger buns

Directions

  1. Set a heavy-based pot over medium-high heat and add a 3-count of olive oil. Add onions and saute for 2 to 3 minutes until translucent. Add ground turkey, season well with salt and pepper and brown well all over, breaking it up with a wooden spoon — about 7 to 10 minutes. Add ketchup, mustard, cayenne, brown sugar and tomato paste. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 to 12 minutes. Finish with a splash of apple cider vinegar and season it once more before serving on toasted whole wheat hamburger buns.
