Chipotle Burgers & Hamburger Salad

So Kelly from Kelly the Kitchen Kop posted about a hamburger salad.  I've been doing the whole gluten free thing so this intrigued me. 

However, I ended up deviating from her recipe. A lot. A whole lot.

If you want to see her ideas, check out the original recipe. 

I stuck with the salad idea but decided to make a chipotle mayo instead.  She recommended fried onions and they are my favorite so I stuck with those.   

Then I did something that many might find odd but I found delicious.  We had butternut squash and baked beans to go along with the hamburgers. At the last minute, I decided just to dump the beans and squash right on the salad. 

Seriously good stuff. 

Eat the burgers with a bun.  Eat it the way Kelly made it. Or invent your own way.  It's all good.

Chipotle Cheeseburgers

2 lbs. ground turkey
1 tbsp. garlic
2 tbsp. chipotles in adobo sauce

Chipotle Mayonnaise:
1/4 cup mayo
1 tbsp. chipotle sauce

Mix ground turkey with garlic and chipotles.  Shape into 6 patties and cook until done.  Mix mayo and chipotle sauce and put on cooked burgers.  (Start with a small amount of chipotle sauce in the mayo and taste so it's not too spicy.)

Grill some onions and serve on buns, or on a salad, or however you would like.
