Ingredients:
1 lb lean ground beef
1/4 cup chunky salsa ( mild, hot, or extra spicy)
1/4 cup finely crushed tortilla chips
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 hamburger buns, split
1 cup shredded monterey jack cheese ( plain or jalepeno)
4 tablespoons sour cream
4 slices tomatoes
leafy green lettuce or finely shredded cabbage
Directions:
Combine beef, salsa, tortilla chips, chili powder and salt and shape into 4 patties.
Place the top halves of the buns, cut side up in a shallow metal baking pan (I use disposable foil pans) top with cheese and cover with foil.
BBQ grill the burgers 5 minutes per side or until juices run clear.
After the first 5 minutes, place the bun pan over indirect heat for 5 minutes or until cheese has melted.
To assemble, place the burgers on the bun bottoms, top each with 1 tbls sour cream, 1 tomato slice, lettuce or cabbage and the other bun halves cheese side down.
