The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt or sour cream
  • 1 lime (zested and juiced)

Instruction

  • Make the crema. In a food processor, combine all ingredients until creamy. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside in the fridge until ready to serve.
  • Make the burgers. In a large bowl, mash the avocado. Add beef, salt and pepper and mix until combined. Form into 4-5 patties, about 1/2 inch thick.
  • Preheat a grill or cast iron pan to medium high heat. Add oil and cook the burgers until seared and golden brown, 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter and serve with a bun, reserved avocado crema, and desired toppings.
