Instructions
- Form 2 pounds of ground beef into 6 hamburger patties. To make them fit the flour tortillas better, make the patties thinner, with a diameter of about 4-5 inches. Grill the burgers on a preheated grill (400º Fahrenheit). The internal temperature should be at least 165º Fahrenheit.
- While the burgers are grilling, spray a frying pan with cooking spray. With the stove on medium-low, lightly toast the flour tortillas for about 2-3 minutes on each side. They should be light brown, and still a little chewy on the inside.
- Put one slice of cheese on a toasted flour tortilla. Place a burger over the cheese with another slice of cheese on top of the burger.
- For the sauce, mix the ketchup and mayonnaise. Mix in 3/4 cup Pico de Gallo to the mayonnaise/ketchup mixture.
- Spread some of the sauce mixture on each burger, and top with another spoonful of Pico de Gallo and some lettuce. Top with another flour tortilla.
- Serve immediately. Enjoy!
