Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Put potato strips, two egg whites and a pinch of Tex-Mex spice in a container with a lid. Shake to coat strips. Lightly spray a cookie sheet with oil, and spread the strips in a single layer. Bake for 30 minutes, or until browned and crispy.
- Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, mix turkey plus remaining egg whites and Tex-Mex spice. Make into six patties. Spray a saucepan with oil and place on medium heat. Cook burgers for about six minutes, until brown on the bottom. Flip, and cook for another six minutes, or until done.
- Place each patty on a bun and top with avocado slices and salsa, if desired. Serve with a side of fries.
