I’m not sure what it is, but ever since my boys have been helping out in the vineyard, they are craving all sorts of foods in different combinations. It must be all the fresh air and hard work!
When my older son saw this on the cover of a magazine, he insisted I make it for him. He does love tacos and burgers and was intrigued with what this combination would taste like. He loved it and it was exactly what he expected.
I would also agree this was very good and definitely puts a twist on grilling night. I especially liked the crunchy chips and sour cream with the salsa.
Try this out let me know what you think.
Start by making your favorite burger, I use ground chuck and some salt to make my patties. Sprinkle each patty with some cumin, oregano and chile power before grilling.
Place guacamole on the bottom half of a hamburger bun.
Place grilled burgers on top of the guacamole and top with salsa, lettuce, cheddar, sour cream and tortilla chips.
Enjoy!

That looks delicious and I think the combination sounds yummy! VERY YUMMY!!!! I’m going to have to try this out once we finally move the rest of our stuff over from Maine…which includes the grill!
Ben says
Wow. Now that looks delicious!
Barbie with a T says
Wow. That burger stands tall! Looks delicious. I think I would like it also. The avocado seems to be a very unique twist and will add plenty of flavor to the already flavorful meat pattie! Thanks. I will try this one soon.

Guacamole on a burger? Now you’re talkin’!

A taco burger is just genius!
Julia says
Did you ever put potato chips on your sandwich as a kid? The nachos totally remind me of that! Brilliant!
kellypea says
I’d go for this much more than the baloney with mustard, lettuce, tomato and potato chips my friend and I used to eat in junior high. Excellent idea!
Liz C. says
This will definitely be a hit here at our house. I also used to eat potato chip or Frito sandwiches as a kid, so this does strike a chord with me too. Another gorgeous, finger-licking delicacy.

I think you’ve raised your son right and he has tremendously good taste and an eye for the scrummy!
theUngourmet says
I’ve made a burger sort of like this but never thought to add the chips. Grand idea! The guacamole looks so delicious and your photos are gorgeous as usual!
Hope things are coming along nicely. đŸ™‚

This is a perfect summer burger for the deck, maybe a margarita or beer – or even a mojito! Thanks, Dan
grace says
you had me from the beginning–that thick layer of guac makes this a done deal. đŸ™‚
Penny says
This looks like a seriously good burger. I have just found your blog and have spent some time here. Your vineyard is wonderful and so is your food.

Have mercy! I could eat that for breakfast!

That burger looks really good, Cathy. Love the avacado on it!

I love Food Network magazine-and I really love the looks of that burger….that is some serious eating right there, for sure.

Cathy at Wives with Knives says
Wow, who wouldn’t love this! Great idea to pile some chips on there too.
Tammy says
Wow, just wow!
Jennifer says
I think I could show this hamburger a good time. đŸ˜‰
lexlocilori says

Carla says
I can’t even believe how delicious that looks. My, oh my…
vanillasugar says

I love this idea Cathy. It fits right in with my Tex-Mex cravings lately.

Hello crunchy chips on a burger. I’m there!
Sarah at Candiquik says
Love the idea! I even made this and used fried flour tortillas as the “bun” – so good. Thanks for sharing!
Jane says
This is a brilliant idea! Must try this next time we make burgers. I’ve made your pepperoni puffs last week. My kids loved them. ~Jane~
LilSis says
Oh yeah! Not only would my 16 year old son love one of these, but this would be worth the calories for me too! I have a feeling that I’ll be making these soon! We make your White Castle Burger recipe all the time!
RecipeGirl Lori says
I was totally thinking this would be a good one for my Culinary Covers blog. I should have had you do it for me!! Looks like a good one for a family-friendly meal. I’m all about guacamole so it looks good to me too!
megan says
What a great spin on a burger. My family will love this.
Paula says
Whoaaaa, that looks awesome! I love the guacamole layer, and those chips would add a fun surprise crunch. This one’s a keeper! YUM!
Victoria says
We just made this burger this evening, we used avocado slices, instead of doing a guacamole, but we followed everything else, and it turned out fantastic! I definitely will be making this again!
Jonnee B. says
Sounds wonderful. I am going to try this soon. I just noticed in my grocery store they have
The Beyond burger not in patties but by the pound. I am looking forward to it.
