​Adobo Chicken Burgers with Roasted Squash and Sweet Potato

Super yummy and easy burger recipe to prep! I threw the spinach and red onion in the food processor instead of spending time finely dicing everything. After that all you need to do is throw the spinach, red onion, ground chicken, and spices together in a bowl and form the burger patties. When dealing with ground chicken or turkey, I have found it extremely helpful wetting my hands with water before shaping each burger - way less sticky and messy! Anyways, since the rain held off I decided to just throw the burgers on the grill instead of the skillet. If you don't have Adobo seasoning, check your local or natural grocery store for some, or just use the alternative spices listed below. I paired this with baked sweet potatoes that I actually cooked in my Instant Pot using a steamer basket (recipe is below), which I think might be my preferred way for now on when bulk making sweet potatoes! Previously I skinned and cubed all my sweet potatoes and just threw them in the Instant Pot with 1-2 cups of water. Once they were done I drained and threw them back in the instant pot on saute mode for a couple minutes to mash everything together. Another pretty easy way to bulk make sweet potatoes, and also gives you the opportunity to add different spices or fat to the mash, but using the steamer definitely takes less prep on my part. While all that was going on I threw the extra red onion on a sheet pan with some green and yellow squash, added a tablespoon of olive oil and some salt, and just baked in the oven for 20-25 minutes at 375 F (moving around half way through). Pretty easy meal to throw together that I absolutely look forward to eating all week!
