Turkey Burgers and Sweet Potato Fries

Probably more fries than one should have, but oh well.

Last week, I totally picked out a meal I have been craving: turkey burgers and sweet potato fries. Maybe it's because it's been warm outside, but I am itching for some summer foods. Turkey burgers on the grill it is. 

I looked for pretzel rolls, as they are my absolutely fave, but they were out at the grocery store. We substituted some onion rolls (toasted, clearly) and topped the turkey burgers with some avocado and a little chipotle mayo. Even after a snafu with the grill (running out of propane), they were just what I was looking for! 

I have been wanting to try these sweet potato fries for a while. I don't mind making something similar on my own (i.e. peeling and cutting a sweet potato and roasting it in the oven), but I never could seem to get the crispiness right.  I picked them up at the store, and am totally hooked. We got the chipotle spiced ones, which are crispy, delicious and spicy! And at 4 grams of fat per serving (and no trans fats) they aren't the worst thing in the world for you. 

Now that we're back in business with a fresh propane tank, let's get ready for some summer grilling!
 

P.S. AND they have sweet potato tater tots! i think my life is complete.
