Instructions
- Mix the ground turkey, apple, garlic, sage, paprika powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Form into patties, two per serving.
- Fry the patties in a skillet with the olive oil for 4-5 minutes on each side, over medium-high heat until cooked through.
- While the patties are in the pan, mix the greens, seeds, vinegar, olive oil, and salt in a bowl. If you use a tougher type of kale, such as curly kale, you can tenderize the leaves by massaging the kale salad firmly with your hands.
- Serve the patties with salad on the side.
Tips
Feel free to add other seasonings to the ground meat, such as onion powder, and/or ground fennel seed.
You can use whatever seeds you'd like on the side salad. You can also drizzle the greens with a squeeze of lemon if you wish.
