4 servings SERVINGS

Ingredients

1 pound lean ground beef
Salt and pepper
4 slices sharp cheddar cheese
4 6-inch fajita flour tortillas
1 red tomato, cut into 4 1/4-inch slices
2 small green leaf lettuce leaves, divided into 4 pieces
1 large red onion, sliced into 1/4-inch slices, pulled into rings
12 dill pickle slices

Directions

Separate ground beef into 4 equal portions; form each into a thin, half-moon-shaped patty.

Place patties in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 3 minutes on each side, or until desired doneness.

When patties are almost cooked, place cheddar cheese slices on each patty and allow cheese to melt. Remove cheeseburgers. Warm tortillas in the microwave for 10 seconds.

Place a hot cheeseburger on half of a warmed tortilla; top with a tomato slice, lettuce leaf, onion rings and pickle slices. Fold tortilla in half.This recipe originally ran in the September 2008 edition of Capper’s Farmer.
