How to Make Burrito Burgers
- In a large bowl, combine the rinsed and drained pinto beans, 2 tablespoons of chopped jalapeños, the chopped onion, and 3/4 teaspoon of salt. Mix well.
- Add the ground beef to the bowl and gently mix until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
- Form the beef mixture into 8 patties, approximately 5 inches in diameter.
- Place 1/2 of a cheese slice on top of each beef patty.
- Fold the patty in half, sealing in the cheese to create a semicircle.
- Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the Burrito Burgers and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, or until the patties are cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- While the burgers cook, warm the tortillas according to package directions (microwave, skillet, or oven).
- Serve the cooked Burrito Burgers in the warmed tortillas.
- Top with lettuce, chopped tomatoes, your favorite salsa, and the remaining chopped jalapeños as desired.
