These hearty, juicy beef burgers combine all the traditions of Mexican cuisine and are easy to prepare, even if you live thousands of miles from the New World. All the ingredients are readily available and, when combined correctly, imbue the burgers with the unique flavors of Mexico. In addition to the grilled beef patty, the sandwich also includes green tomato salsa, which is quickly prepared in the microwave, and guacamole (a Mexican spread made with avocado, tomatoes, and lime juice). Everything is served on toasted buns and topped with grilled corn on the cob.
