Last year I decided to
pull us out of our hamburger-as-plain-beef-patty rut and try some fun gourmet burgers. Plain burgers are tasty and they are certainly convenient, but it's fun to play around with different and interesting combinations. There aren't too many other people who do this better than Rachael Ray.
This time we tried her
Salsa Verde Burger. Yet another winner. Some of her burgers can take quite a bit of prep work, but this one went together very easily. Take a little ground chicken or turkey and mix it up with your favorite salsa verde and the burger part is done. What really makes this burger special though is the avocado mayo - an avocado mashed with some garlic and mayo - really delicious. A straight up guacamole would work nicely here too. The burger is also topped with jack cheese and cilantro for even more flavor punch.
That's it. A simple burger with great Mexican flavors. This one will definitely be a repeater in this house.
