Description

Mixed with taco seasoning and topped with Mexican-inspired ingredients, these taco burgers get a twist that everyone will enjoy.

Ingredients

1 pound ground beef
1 (1 ounce) packet taco seasoning
5 slices pepper Jack cheese
5 hamburger buns, split
1/4 cup sour cream, or to taste
1/4 cup salsa, or to taste
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 tomato, sliced
1 avocado, sliced
1/2 onion, sliced

Directions

1 Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
2 Mix ground beef and taco seasoning together in a bowl with your hands. Separate mixture into 5 equal portions. Form into patties.
3 Cook patties on the preheated grill for 5 minutes. Flip, top with pepper Jack cheese slices, and continue to grill until no longer pink or to desired doneness, about 5 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a patty should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
4 Spread sour cream and salsa on buns. Add patties; top with cilantro, tomato, avocado, and onion.
