Instructions
- Step 1: Prepare the Guacamole In a medium bowl, mash the avocados until mostly smooth. Add the lime juice, diced red onion, tomato, cilantro, and salt. Mix gently until combined. Cover and refrigerate while preparing the burgers.
- Step 2: Season the Beef In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, garlic powder, onion powder, chili
powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix lightly until just combined. Divide into four equal portions and shape into burger patties. Press a small indentation into the center of each patty. - Step 3: Preheat the Grill Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the cooking surface to prevent sticking.

burger. Cover briefly to help the cheese melt completely. - Step 6: Toast the Buns Place the burger buns on the grill for 1 to 2 minutes until lightly toasted. This adds extra flavor and helps hold the toppings.
- Step 7: Assemble the Mexican Guacamole Cheddar Burger Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun. Add the cheeseburger patty. Top generously with guacamole, tomato slices, red onion, and jalapeños if
desired. 1. Finish with the top bun and serve immediately.
