Olive cheese toast and turkey burgers

I love olives! I saw this on Pioneer Woman and it was fantastic.

I'm not sure of her exact recipe, I just took the idea so here's how I made it
In the food processor
1/2 c. kalamata olive
1/2 c. green olives
1/4 c. capers
3-4 large garlic cloves
Rough chop everything
Then add
1 stick butter -soft
handful flat leaf parsley
zest and juice on 1 lime
Add cheese
I had about 2 c. monterey jack but I think goat cheese would be delish!

Generously spread on baguette, french bread, ciabatta rolls.... Whatever you have

Toast in oven until golden and bubbly!


And here's a turkey burger wrap
I don't know if those giant tortillas even save any calories but it makes me feel good instead of a bun.

Southwest Turkey Burger

Corn and black bean salad
1 can black beans drained and rinsed
1 c. frozen corn
1/4 c. diced onion
1/4 c. diced bell peppers
In a skillet saute peppers and onions until soft, add corn roast until lightly brown
Add black beans
squeeze lime juice
drizzle of olive juice
salt and pepper


12" flavored wrap - I used the cheddar jalapeno wrap
turkey burger
white cheddar cheese
cleaned cilantro
chipotle mayo - combine pureed chipotle peppers with mayonnaise - (siraccha is also yummy) Or guacamole would be nice too!

Cook turkey burger until done and top with white cheddar

Then on a large tortilla spread with chipotle mayo
top with turkey burger
Roasted corn and black bean mix
cilantro

Close up tortilla by folding around burger working in a circle and overlapping tortilla until completely enclosed
Place on a skillet to lightly toast and close up the bottom
Cut in half and enjoy
