Ingredients

Potato Wedges (or use frozen fries)

2 large russet potatoes washed, cut into wedges
2 tbsp avocado oil
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp black pepper

Burger Sauce

1/2 cup Greek yogurt plain, full-fat
2 tbsp mayonnaise more to taste
1 tbsp ketchup
1 1/2 tbsp dijon mustard
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp paprika
1 tsp honey
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
pinch of salt more to taste
black pepper to taste

Ground Turkey

1 tbsp avocado oil or other neutral oil
1 lb lean ground turkey
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper

Bowl toppings

2 cups green leaf lettuce chopped
2 cups green cabbage shredded
1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
1/2 cup sweet onion sliced
1/2 cup dill pickle chips
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
optional veggie ideas: sliced avocado, cucumber, shredded carrot, diced bell pepper

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Add potato wedges to a large bowl, drizzle with olive oil, and toss evenly with seasonings. Optional step: for even crispier wedges, soak sliced potatoes in water for 10-15 minutes. Rinse and thoroughly dry before seasoning.
Arrange potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet and transfer to oven. Bake potato wedges for 30-35 minutes, flipping about halfway.
Assemble the sauce: in a small bowl combine all sauce ingredients, mix well. Add salt and black pepper to taste, set aside.
Next, cook ground turkey. Heat oil in a medium skillet on medium heat. Add ground turkey and break apart. Allow to cook for a few minutes undisturbed and then add all ground turkey seasonings: Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Continue cooking for an additional 6-7 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks. Finish cooking when ground turkey is no longer pink and has an internal temp of 165.
Finally, assemble bowls: divide greens, veggies and cheese evenly between 4 large dinner bowls. Top with cooked ground turkey, potato wedges and a heavy drizzle of burger sauce!

Notes

If you are short on time swap the potato wedges for your favorite frozen french fries prepared in the oven or air fryer, or make my Air Fryer Potato Wedges instead.
