The Moccasin Burger is a flavorful, Paleo-inspired dish that combines ground bison with a medley of spices, served on sweet potato 'buns' for a delicious twist. This burger is not only satisfying but also packed with nutrients, making it a perfect choice for a healthy meal.

Ingredients

• Ground bison - 300 grams
• Sweet potatoes - 2 medium-sized (about 300 grams)
• Red onion - 1 small, finely chopped
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Cumin - 1 teaspoon
• Paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Fresh spinach - 50 grams
• Avocado - 1 medium, sliced
• Cherry tomatoes - 100 grams, halved

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
2. Peel the sweet potatoes and slice them into 1.5 cm thick rounds to form the burger 'buns'.
3. Arrange the sweet potato slices on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until tender and slightly crispy.
4. In a bowl, combine ground bison, chopped red onion, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and form into two patties.
5. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the bison patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
6. Once the sweet potatoes and patties are ready, assemble the burger by placing a bison patty between two sweet potato slices. Top with fresh spinach, avocado slices, and cherry tomatoes.
7. Serve immediately and enjoy your Moccasin Burger!
