Ingredients
- 1 lb ground chicken or turkey
- 1 1/2 tbsp ranch seasoning
- 1/4 cup buffalo sauce
- 1/4 cup diced red onions
- 8 taco size tortillas I used GF, but you can use low carb, whole wheat or flour
- 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup shredded romaine lettuce
- 1/2 cup diced cucumbers
- 3/4 cup diced tomatoes
- 1 avocado- sliced
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
- extra buffalo sauce for topping
Let's Make It
- In a bowl, combine the ground chicken with ranch seasoning, buffalo sauce + onions. Roll into 8 balls, about 1/3 cup of the mixture per ball.
- Over medium high heat, add 3-4 of the burger patties to the pan, smashing them down to flatten. Cook for 4-5 minutes, flip and continue cooking for another 4-5 minutes or until the burger is cooked to 165℉.
- Top the burgers with cheese and them place a tortilla on top, smashing the tortilla into the burger + cheese. Once the cheese is melted, flip the burger one more time to crisp the other side of the tortilla.
- Add lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, avocado, ranch + more buffalo sauce to each burger. Serve immediately.
