Instructions

  1. Soak cut sweet potatoes in cold water for 1 hour (this helps make them crispier).Drain and pat them dry with a clean towel.
  2. Toss fries with avocado oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and nutritional yeast (if using). Sprinkle arrowroot powder evenly over the fries and toss to coat. Spread on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake at 400°F for 45 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  3. In a large bowl, mix the turkey, onion, garlic, chipotle powder, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper until well combined. Form into 4 burger patties.
  4. Heat a skillet over medium heat with a little oil and cook burgers for 4–5 minutes per side, or until fully cooked.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together mayo, lime juice, garlic powder, chipotle powder, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
  6. In each bowl, layer spring greens, a burger patty, sliced avocado, sweet potato fries, a drizzle of chipotle mayo, and crumbled feta on top if desired.
