Receta Beef and Bean Burrito Burger
A different way to enjoy a juicy burger. Refried beans combined with the ground beef make this burger almost like the consistency of meat loaf. It also makes one pound of ground beef go a long way. I got 5 huge burgers from this recipe!
- 1 cup cold leftover rice
- 1 lb. ground beef
- 1/2 can (15-ounce) refried beans
- 3 tsps. chili powder
- 1-1/2 tsp. cumin
- 1-1/2 tsp. coriander
- 1 Tbsp. grill seasoning (I used McCormick Montreal Steak Seasoning)
- 1 egg
- 1 Tbsp. canola oil
- 2 ripe avacados
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 clove garlic, grated
- 1 lime zested and juiced
- 2-3 tsps. Cholula hot sauce (or to taste)
- 1/2 small red onion, finely chopped
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- Lettuce leaves
- 1 ripe tomato, sliced
- Crusty rolls, split or Texas Garlic Toast
Combine rice, meat and beans with spices and grill seasoning. Add egg and mix well. Form 5 big patties from the meat mixture. Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook patties 5-7 minutes on each side. Top with lots of cheddar cheese, cover patties until cheese melts.
While burgers cook, combine avocado with garlic, lime zest and juice, hot sauce and red onion. Mash to roughly combine.
Place burgers on buns with lettuce, tomato, guacamole and sour cream.
