Tender juicy curry burgers! We’ve opted for ground beef, but turkey and lamb are good, too! The yogurt helps keeps the burgers moist, and the the mango raisin chutney really adds to the unique flavors! There’s no need for a bun if you’re grain-free; these are great on their own, or “sandwiched” between lettuce leaves. Enjoy with a leafy green garden salad or a side of favorite slaw. Makes 4 burgers.

Kick-Spiced Mini Turkey Muffins
These little meat muffins make a great snack or meal if you’re watching your carbs. Kick Ketchup can be mixed in equal proportions with regular organic ketchup or tomato paste to reduce spiciness. We used dark turkey, however, if using breast meat, adding 1/2 Tbsp olive or almond oil to the recipe makes for a juicier result. For standard muffin tins, the yield is roughly 10-12 depending on optional ingredients added. These freeze well.
