Ingredients: 1 lb ground turkey. 1/4 cup breadcrumbs. 2 cloves garlic, minced. 2 green onions, finely chopped. 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped. 1 tsp ginger, grated. 1 tsp soy sauce. 1/2 tsp fish sauce. 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes. 1 cucumber, thinly sliced. 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced. 1/4 cup rice vinegar. 1/4 cup mayonnaise. 1 tbsp Sriracha sauce. 4 burger buns. Lettuce leaves for garnish. Salt and pepper to taste. Vegetable oil for grilling.

Instructions: Put ground turkey, breadcrumbs, chopped green onions, cilantro, ginger that has been grated, soy sauce, fish sauce, and red pepper flakes in a bowl. Mix it well, then shape it into 4 burger patties. Warm up the grill over medium-high heat. Add salt and pepper to the burger patties and brush them with vegetable oil. The turkey patties should be cooked on both sides for four to five minutes, or until they are done and no longer pink in the middle. You can make the cucumber pepper relish while the burgers are cooking on the grill. Cut the cucumber, red bell pepper, and rice vinegar into thin slices and put them in a different bowl.

Put the burger buns on the grill and toast them for one to two minutes, until they get a little brown. Spread a lot of spicy mayo on the bottom half of each bun before putting the burgers together. On top of the mayo, put a turkey burger patty. Then, add lettuce leaves and a big scoop of cucumber pepper relish. Place the other half of the bun on top of each burger and use a toothpick to hold it in place if necessary. Enjoy the Thai turkey burgers with extra relish on the side.

These delicious gluten-free cookies combine the rich flavors of cocoa and chocolate chips in a beautiful swirl pattern. Perfect for those with gluten sensitivities or anyone who loves a delightful chocolatey treat!

Ingredients: 1 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour. 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder. 1/2 teaspoon baking powder. 1/4 teaspoon salt. 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened. 1/2 cup granulated sugar. 1/2 cup brown sugar. 1 large egg. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. 1/2 cup gluten-free chocolate chips.

Instructions: Put the gluten-free all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt in a medium-sized bowl and mix them together with a whisk. When the butter is soft, mix it with the brown sugar and white sugar in a different large bowl until it is light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix them in well. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ones and mix them together until a smooth dough forms. Split the dough in half, and put one half in a clean bowl. Add the gluten-free chocolate chips to one part and mix until they are spread out evenly. Put both pieces of dough in the fridge for at least an hour after wrapping them in plastic wrap. Warm your oven up to 350F 175C and put parchment paper on a baking sheet. Take both pieces of dough out of the fridge. Cut off little chunks of each dough and mix them together slowly to make cookie dough balls. Leave enough space between the cookie dough balls as you place them on the baking sheet that has been prepared. For 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are set, bake the cookies. Let the cookies cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before moving them to a wire rack to cool all the way. Enjoy these tasty chocolate and chocolate chip swirl cookies that are free of gluten!
