Ingredients

  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 1/4 cup diced jalapenos
  • 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 4 whole-grain hamburger buns
  • 4 lettuce leaves
  • 4 tomato slices
  • 4 onion slices

Directions

  1. 1

    Combine ground beef, jalapenos, blue cheese, breadcrumbs, egg, salt, and pepper in a bowl.

  2. 2

    Form the mixture into 4 equal patties, making a small indent in the center of each for even cooking.

  3. 3

    Preheat grill to medium-high heat.

  4. 4

    Grill patties for 4-5 minutes on each side until desired doneness; add cheese near end to melt.

  5. 5

    Toast buns on the grill for 1 minute until lightly crispy.

  6. 6

    Assemble burgers: place lettuce, tomato, and onion on bottom bun, add patty, and cover with top bun.

  7. 7

    Serve immediately and enjoy the burst of flavors.

Chef's tip

Opt for lean ground beef to reduce fat content and use whole-grain buns for additional fiber. Creating an indent in the patties ensures even cooking without puffing up.
