Enjoy This Week’s CommonHealth Weekly Wellnote

Here’s everything you love about a delicious burger and fries—but healthier, featuring a ground turkey patty and fries that are made out of a butternut squash. The turkey patties are flavored with scallions, barbecue sauce, and a pinch of salt, which are then roasted in the oven, then topped with lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, and a tangy mayo sauce. This recipe is designed to serve one, but you can easily scale it up if you’re roasting burgers for a crowd. Also, be sure to use the long neck of the squash to cut the fries—the shorter bulb will not yield fry-like sticks.
