Description

This Avocado Bison Burgers recipe is a great way to get avocado in your diet and try a meat you may not typically eat. It’s also truly one of the most delicious healthy grilling recipes you can try.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds grass-fed bison meat, ground
  • ⅔ cup shallots, finely diced
  • ½ cup scallions, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
  • 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
  • 2 garlic clove, minced
  • 4 teaspoon fresh thyme (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme)
  • sea salt and black pepper
  • 4 large pieces of iceberg lettuce
  • 1 whole avocado cut into large pieces
  • 1 large tomato cut into slices

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, mix all the ingredients except the avocado, lettuce and tomato together.
  • Form 8 patties.
  • Chill in refrigerator for about 10–20 minutes to firm up.
  • Grill over high heat until cooked through to medium.
  • Serve hot on an Ezekiel bread or gluten-free bun topped with lettuce, avocado and tomato slice (or for a grain-free option use butter lettuce leaves instead of a bun).

Notes

  • Feel free to add additional toppings, such as onion, pickles, etc.
  • Choose whichever bun you like, or eat them without a bun at all!
