Hot-Cold Mexican Burger

There is nothing like sinking your teeth into a good burger on one of the last days of summer. Here is my healthy go-to with a kick when hankering for a burger:

Organic grass-fed beef patties (sub veggie burger or turkey burger)

Sliced Serrano peppers (if you like spicy)

Sliced yellow bell peppers

Shaved onions

Sliced & chilled avocado

Cold salsa!

Cilantro to garnish

Big-leaf lettuce

Grill beef to preferred level (I love medium rare).

Sautee Serranos, bell peppers, and onions in olive oil until golden.

Place burger patty in one leaf of lettuce, top with veggies, add sliced avocado, salsa and cilantro.  Wrap lettuce around everything and dig in!

I love the hot-cold contrast of the ingredients.
