Ingredients
1 pound ground turkey
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/4 cup minced red onion
1 teaspoon coarse salt
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
4 whole-wheat buns, grilled
1 avocado, sliced
4-5 Peppadew peppers, sliced

Directions
- Prepare the Turkey Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, Dijon mustard, minced red onion, and coarse salt. Mix gently until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
- Form the Patties: Divide the turkey mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 3/4-inch thick.
- Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly drizzle the grill with extra-virgin olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Cook the Burgers: Place the turkey patties on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the burgers are golden brown.
- Grill the Buns: During the last few minutes of cooking, place the whole-wheat buns on the grill to toast until lightly golden.
- Assemble the Burgers: Place each cooked turkey patty on a grilled bun. Top with sliced avocado, Peppadew peppers, baby arugula, and a sprinkle of grated Parmesan.
- Serve: Enjoy your flavorful mustard turkey burgers warm, accompanied by your favorite sides.
