comfor t food. You can re-create these hear ty f lavors at home with these easy to make
recipes. The fall burger and spiced pumpkin shake are perfect for a halloween party!

The Fall Burger
free range turkey burger with lettuce, tomato, sage, thick cut bacon, cranberry aioli
Ingredients
1 lb free range ground turkey (thigh meat
is juicier and more f lavorsome)*
4 burger buns
4 - 8 leaves green leaf lettuce (any green
will do)
8 fresh sage leaves
8 slices ripe tomato
4 pieces cooked thick applewood smoked
bacon (preferably nitrite / nitrate free)*
1 cup mayo
1/4 cup cranberry jelly
salt and pepper
2 tablespoon vegetable oil
*Note: Available at Wholefoods. Fairway and Trader Joes are good options.
Note: We recommend a cranberry jelly with tex ture - made with whole cranberries.
Directions
1. Divide turkey meat into 4. Gently mold 4 equal size size patties. Each patty should be about 3.5
inches in diameter. Don’t overwork the meat, Set aside and place in fridge to chill.
2. Prepare toppings ready to dress your turkey burger:
i. wash, dry, and trim lettuce to f it over each patty.
ii. 2 sage leaves per burger
iii. 2 slices of tomatoes per burger
iv. cut each slice of cooked bacon in half
3. Make cranberry aioli:
i. mix mayo, cranberry jelly and seasoning to taste. Set aside.
4. Heat up a cast iron skillet or non stick pan.
5. Add vegetable oil. You are ready when oil surface shimmers.
6. Season turkey patties with salt and pepper on both sides.
7. Place in pan and cook for 3 minutes per side. Internal temp should reach 165 degrees.
8. While turkey is grilling, split
your burger buns and toast.
Note: A good trick is to heat the cast iron skillet
to a high temp and then toast buns directly on
surface of the skillet. Watch your buns. They
toast fast. Set aside. This way you get a smokey
f lavor and less cleaning! Then proceed to step 5.
9. Place grilled burgers on bottom por tion of
each toasted bun.
10. Top each burger with two sages leaves,
lettuce, two slices of tomato, two bacon halves.
11. Carefully spread a generous of amount of
cranberry aioli on the top por tion of the toasted
bun.
12. Place this over the burger and toppings.
Serve with a side of oven baked sweet potato fries. Bon Appetit!
