do you use the peppers as a side or do you mix it with ground meat when you make the patties?

I thought balsamic vineagar was ok….I have seen somewhere that all vinegar was ok. I have been using only balsamic on all of my salad……

@ Hal,
Most vinegars are fine. Some people have a hard time with balsamic vinegar because of the sugar content.

I have been making these burgers for over a year now! They are fabulous. My husband and I prefer them over any other burger. I used this recipe a few times but modified it to suit my needs. I will buy 2 containers of turkey (2.6 lbs total) at a time to make about 10 burgers, wrap individually in wax paper, and freeze.
Mix 2.6 lbs of 93% ground turkey, 1 zuchinni chopped finely, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt & pepper, chipotle chili powder all to taste. Add the franks red hot buffalo sauce to the meat. Make into patties and freeze. Ready to grill whenever you want. 🙂 thanks for your recipe!

Is this meal okay for the 10 day cleanse? I’m on day seven and would love to make this for dinner.
Healthy Girl

@ Karl,
Enjoy this. For best results, use Pam or only 1T of olive oil in nonstick pan.

I though you were to avoid ground meat ?
Healthy Girl
15. Jan, 2013
@ Rachael,
Avoid beef, but ground chicken and turkey are fine.
Rachael
15. Jan, 2013
So, is that the case in both phases ?
Also I noticed a lot of recipes call for veggies that aren’t on the grocery list, such as; onions, bell peppers are they ok ?
Seafood ? Which face and your suggestions… Grilled shrimp ?
One more question is whole wheat pasta considered an ok complex carb ?
Healthy Girl
22. Jan, 2013
@ Rachael,
Most veggies are good, and those are fine. Just need to limit where it says that – corn, potatoes, etc.
Try the Salmon recipe – can be used for other fish. There is also a recipe for tilapia. Shrimp okay in moderation.
No wheat on the cleanse. Complex carbs suggested are hummus, half a sweet potato, 1/2 cup brown rice. Only have 1.

I thought we were supposed to avoid vinegar during the cleanse phase?
Healthy Girl

@ Elaine,
Vinegar is fine – just avoid balsamic because of sugar content.

@ Tori,
You could use cucumber or yellow squash. Perhaps, pepper.

Fried in olive oil? That’s ok?
Healthy Girl

@ Rodd,
Olive oil in small quantities is acceptable per plan, but on Deanne’s recipe, we would suggest using PAM or grilling.

The Buffalo Turkey burgers are AWesome! A Definite must try. My husband mis-read the instructions and mixed the hot wing sauce in with the meat. It was pretty spicy, but really good. the smell was awesome too. maybe cut the hot wing sauce in half for a milder patty!

can I have Venisen Jerkey or can I use buffalo wing sauce during the 10 day cleansing?
Healthy Girl
12. Apr, 2012
@ Ron,
It would depend on the ingredients. If there is sugar, or other substance we are trying to avoid, then not a good idea. Usually any jerky is way too high in sodium.

What can my salad at lunch consist of? lettuce and chicken only? or can it have egg or cheese?
Healthy Girl
12. Apr, 2012
@ Lindsey,
Eggs are great. You can also use fish or other lean protein. Add some more vegetables, but skip the cheese.

I know dairy is not advised during the cleanse. What about soy products like Silk which is dairy and lactose free?
Healthy Girl

Soy is fine, just read the label to be sure no sugar or other things added.

We did the turkey burgers last night also and they were great. Im in the 10 day cleanse now. Im not a big salmon guy, so I will make chicken breasts for salads. Can we marinate the chicken in buffalo sauce?
That turkey burger recipe called for franks red hot, can I use that on my chicken during the cleanse phase?
Thanks

Can you have the Buffalo Turkey Burgers on the 10 day cleansing? I thought you couldn’t have anything fried. Could you grill them instead?
Healthy Girl

Grilling is a great idea. Let us know how they turn out!
