4. When you have around 10 minutes left for your mushrooms heat a skillet up and cook your Trader Joes turkey burgers all the way through


5. Meanwhile while your burgers are cooking slice your avocado in half, remove the meat and place in a small bowl
6. Take your pico and mix it together with your avocado to make an effortless guac to top your turkey burger with
