DirectionsTo prepare fries: Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.Slice sweet potato into 1/4-inch-thick matchsticks. Place on a baking sheet, drizzle with oil, and toss to coat. Sprinkle with 1/8 tsp. salt. Bake, flipping halfway through, until tender and crisp-edged, 20 to 25 minutes.Meanwhile, prepare burgers: Using your hands, mix turkey, Cheddar, Worcestershire, garlic powder, pepper, and salt in a medium bowl. Shape into two 4-inch patties, about 3/4 inch thick.Brush oil over a medium nonstick or cast-iron skillet; set it over medium heat for 2 minutes. (Alternatively, to grill, see Tip.) Add the patties and cook for 2 minutes. Flip and cook for 2 more minutes. Cover the pan and continue to cook until the patties are lightly browned but still juicy (the juices should run clear, not pink), and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 165 degrees F, 2 to 4 minutes more.To assemble the burgers, top each patty with a slice of onion and tomato, and half the avocado slices. Carefully wrap each one in 2 to 3 lettuce leaves, wrapping as tightly as you can. Serve with the sweet potato fries.TipsTip: To grill the patties: In Step 4, preheat grill to medium-high.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)
- Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
