“‘I dreamed up these cheese- and vegetable-stuffed burgers for a family barbecue years ago,’ recalls veteran cook Betty Canoles of Atascadero, California. ‘They’re delicious grilled or pan-fried. You bite into a surprise.’”
INGREDIENTS
* 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
* 6 thin slices Cheddar cheese
* 1 large green pepper, julienned
* 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
* 1 medium tomato, thinly sliced
* 6 thin slices Swiss Gruyere cheese
* salt and pepper to taste
* Lettuce Leaves
* 6 hamburger buns, split
DIRECTIONS
1. Shape beef into 12 thin patties. Top six patties with a slice of cheddar cheese, green pepper strips and a slice of onion, tomato and Swiss cheese. Top each with another patty and seal edges. Season to taste. Broil, grill or pan-fry burgers until meat is no longer pink. Serve on lettuce-lined buns.
