¼ tsp (1.25 ml) pepper
½ tsp (2.5 ml) salt

Method
Avocado and Chicken Burgers
Combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and mix well to combine. Shape the mixture into six patties and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Heat the oil in a pan and fry the patties for about 4 minutes on each side or until cooked.
Guacamole Pesto
Combine the basil, garlic, lemon juice and salt in the bowl of a food processor and whizz until finely chopped. Add the almonds and whizz for 1 minute. Drizzle in the Westfalia Plain Avocado Oil to emulsify. Add the Westfalia Plain Guacamole and mix to combine.
Serve the burger patties atop a bun, drizzled with guacamole pesto. Alternatively, for a lighter, low-carb version, go bun-less and enjoy your patty with a delicious side of Broccoli Slaw.
