Here is a really tasty burger recipe. Yeah, I don’t eat burgers much any more, either, but this is a “framily” favorite at cookouts at our house. I keep getting requests to make them so an opportunity just presented itself yesterday. It so happens that I am in charge of supper down at the beach for 23 family members so I am making these as sliders, and siding it with a double batch of Mom’s Potato Salad. Oh heck to the yes!
Ingredients:
1 lb. lean ground beef or turkey
1 1/2 cups (6 oz.) Mexican blend shredded cheese
1/2 cup salsa, divided
1/4 cup crushed tortilla chips
1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
1 t. ground cumin or chili powder
1/2 t. garlic salt
4 hamburger buns, split or sourdough bread
Lettuce
Tomato slices
1. Combine ground beef, 1 cup cheese, 1/4 cup salsa, tortilla chips, green onions, cumin and garlic salt in medium bowl. Shape into 4 patties, 4 inches in diameter and 1/2-inch thick (if you are doing sliders, just make the patties the desired size. I have a slider maker so I can press 5 at a time).
2. Preheat grill or broiler. Grill patties, 5 minutes per side for burgers and just watch closely for sliders. We grilled some over charcoal, and did some on a George Foreman grill since we had so many to do.
3. Grill or lightly toast hamburger buns. Place burgers on buns; top with remaining salsa; sprinkle with remaining cheese. Serve with lettuce and, if desired, tomato.
