If you like a little spice in your food, these big stuffed burgers are for you. Just have plenty of frosty cold drinks on hand to serve with them. Ingredients:
1 medium ripe avocado, peeled and cubed |
1 medium tomato, finely chopped |
1 small onion, finely chopped |
1 can (4 ounces) diced jalapeno peppers, drained, divided |
1 tablespoon lime juice |
1 garlic clove, minced |
2 pounds ground turkey or beef |
4 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded monterey jack cheese |
1 tablespoon steak seasoning |
4 kaiser rolls, split |
4 bibb lettuce leaves |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the avocado, tomato, onion, 1/4 cup jalapenos, lime juice and garlic; set aside.
2. Shape beef into eight patties. In another bowl, combine the cheeses and remaining jalapenos. Spoon onto the center of four patties. Top with remaining patties and press edges firmly to seal; sprinkle burgers with steak seasoning.
3. Grill burgers, covered, over medium heat for 6-7 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 160°. Serve on rolls with lettuce leaves and avocado mixture. Yield: 4 servings.
