Asian flavored chicken patties are placed on hamburger buns and topped with avocado, red onion, and spinach for a simple, tasty chicken burger that will fill you right up and keep you satisfied for a while.
Spinach, red onion, and avocado is optional.
I topped my chicken burger patty with spinach, red onion, and avocado, obviously, but you don’t have to. In fact, if you leave out the avocado, one burger would just be 6 green, 4 blue, and 4 purple points. Or if you have extra points and want to use the whole avocado, you can do that too. If you split the whole avocado between the 4 burgers, one burger would be 9 green, 7 blue, and 7 purple points.
About the cilantro spinach.
This might seem random to many people, but to a few, this will make sense. The other day, I shared a Chipotle Grilled Chicken with Apple Salsa recipe, and I accidentally called the cilantro spinach. I had today’s Asian Chicken Burger recipe on my brain, because I made it that same day, and I did not catch my mistake until a few of our kind MPM readers brought it to my attention. Anyway, I apologize for that mistake. I have fixed the recipe now.
Another updated list: The “Low MyWW point breakfast ideas” list!
The list of quick and easy breakfast ideas has been updated to include the green, blue, and purple points! If you could use some fresh ideas for breakfast or if you are just looking for a low point breakfast to eat on Thanksgiving morning, give this list a look over! I have also added some extra options to the list that work well with the MyWW program!
