GRILLED TACO BURGERS

Steps:

• Heat gas or charcoal grill. In medium bowl, mix crushed chips, taco sauce, salt, pepper and beef. Shape mixture into 6 patties, about 5 inches in diameter. Press thumb in center of each patty, creating a slight indentation, until bottom of patty is about 1/2 inch thick.
• Place patties on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook 5 minutes. Turn patties; cook about 5 minutes longer or until meat thermometer inserted in center of patties reads 160°F. Top each patty with cheese slice; cook 1 minute or until cheese begins to melt.
• Meanwhile, spray cut sides of buns with cooking spray. Place buns, cut sides down, on grill; cook about 2 minutes or until golden brown.
• To serve, place cheese-topped patties on bottom halves of buns. Top with lettuce, tomato and top halves of buns.

GRILLED TACO BURGER AND POTATO FOIL PACKS

Steps:

• Heat gas or charcoal grill. In medium bowl, mix ground beef, bread crumbs, taco seasoning mix and milk until well blended. Shape mixture into 4 (4-inch) patties. In another medium bowl, mix frozen potatoes and dip.
• Cut 4 (18x12-inch) sheets of heavy-duty foil; spray with cooking spray. Place 1 patty on each; top with 1/4 of potato mixture. Wrap each pack securely using double-fold seals, allowing room for heat expansion.
• When grill is heated, place packs, seam side up, on grill over medium heat; cover grill. Cook 15 to 25 minutes, rearranging packs several times, until patties are thoroughly cooked.
• To make in oven, place packs on cookie sheet. Bake at 375°F 40 to 45 minutes or until potatoes are tender and burgers are cooked through (at least 165°F in center).

GRILLED TACO BURGER AND POTATO FOIL PACKETS

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Cut four 12x18-inch sheets of aluminum foil.
• Mix ground beef, bread crumbs, milk, and taco seasoning mix together in a medium bowl until well blended. Shape into four 4-inch patties. Mix potatoes and salsa in another medium bowl.
• Place 1 patty onto each piece of foil and top with 1/4 of the potato mixture and 1/4 of the Cheddar cheese. Wrap each packet securely using double-fold seals, allowing room for heat expansion.
• Place packets, seam-side up, on the preheated grill. Cover the grill and cook, rearranging the packets several times, until patties are cooked through and potatoes are tender, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C).
