I was going to make hamburgers for supper last night but tired of just plain burgers...had some stuff here to make tacos & thought I'd incorporate all of that into a sandwich... Was going to take a picture but he was starving...so will have to wait til next time for the picture! He said they were good, but a little messy...that's what napkins are for!

How To Make taco burgers

  • 1
    Crumble meat in bowl. Combine all the seasonings and add to meat. Break egg into mixture, work into meat with your hands. Add breadcrumbs and combine well.
  • 2
    Divide meat into 4 patties, making thinner in center w/thicker edges. Place in skillet and cook over medium heat, turning over halfway through time. I did mine about 10 min first, then 5 on second side for well done.

    Remove burgers from skillet and blot with paper towelling to absorb any excess grease.
