Bring on the summer grilling! This guacamole-smothered burger is a summer hit!
Ingredients
1 ripe peeled avocado, divided
2 Tbsp nonfat plain Greek yogurt
1 Tbsp low fat mayonnaise
2 tsp fresh lime juice
¼ tsp ground cumin
⅓ cup tomato, seeded and chopped
1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and chopped
½ tsp kosher salt, divided
1 lb 90% lean ground sirloin
¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
Cooking spray
4 (1½-ounce) whole-grain hamburger buns
1 cup alfalfa sprouts
Instructions
Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
Place half of avocado in a bowl and mash with a fork until almost smooth. Add yogurt and next 3 ingredients to bowl; stir to combine. Dice remaining half of avocado. Add diced avocado, tomato, jalapeño, and ⅛ teaspoon salt to bowl; stir gently to combine.
Season beef with remaining ⅜ teaspoon salt and pepper; mix well. Divide beef into 4 equal portions. Gently shape each portion into a (1/2-inch-thick) patty. Grill 3 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness.
Place ¼ cup sprouts on bottom half of each bun; top each with 1 patty, about 3 tablespoons guacamole, and top half of bun.
