Make
- Heat up a skillet or non-stick pan over medium heat. Add cooking oil and then patties to heated oil. Cook on both sides for 5 to 6 minutes, until the turkey patty reaches 165F / 74C. Remove from pan and set aside.
- There should be a little turkey grease left in the pan. Crack eggs directly in the leftover heated grease. Fry for ~3 minutes and then lower heat and cover with a lid and cook for another 2 to 4 minutes depending on level of yolk done-ness desired.
- Slice tomatoes while eggs cook.
- Divide up slaw and place patties onto bed of slaw, and top with tomato and egg. Enjoy with your favorite hot sauce!

Liked the burger a lot (boyfriend wished it had some kind of condiment) but didnt love the salad
Loved how easy it was! Forgot the pepitas. Used finger limes and it was awesome to get that burst of flavor. I look forward to it being even better tomorrow.
Yum! Really delicious and filling soup, super easy to make. I subbed kale for collards, since I had a bunch on hand anyway. I think this will be even better once it's had some time to sit a bit and develop the flavors.
Burgers were a little dry, but the slaw was tasty even without the honey (not adding sugar to recipes at the moment).
