KIDS CAN MAKE: TACO CHEESEBURGER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, combine the chili powder, cumin and 1 teaspoon salt. Stir until well mixed.
• Divide the ground beef into 4 equal sections, about 6 ounces each. Gently form the meat into thick disks, then place on a piece of wax paper. Press the patties until they're about 1/2-inch thick and 6 inches in diameter. Sprinkle each patty on both sides with the spice mix, using about 1/2 tablespoon per burger. Cut each patty in half, giving you 8 pieces.
• Heat a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat for 3 minutes. When the skillet is hot, add 1 tablespoon of the oil and 4 of the patties. Cook until the meat is browned half of the way up the side, 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side. Place a half-slice of cheese (torn into a few pieces so it fits on the burger) to cover the patty and melt over the top. Cook until the patty is well-browned on the bottom, another 2 1/2 minutes. Remove the burgers to a plate, tent with foil, to allow the juices to redistribute, at least 5 minutes. Scrape out any crusty bits on the bottom of the skillet and pour off the extra grease. Add the remaining tablespoon of oil and repeat the process for the remaining 4 patties.
• If using hard taco shells, place them on a baking sheet and warm in the oven for about 5 minutes. If using soft tortillas, wrap the stack of 8 in foil and warm for 5 minutes.
• Line the center of each taco with some lettuce, insert a patty and 2 tomato slices, then top with 1 teaspoon salsa and some sour cream, and serve.

EASY CHEESEBURGER TACOS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef with black pepper, salt, and garlic powder in the hot skillet until meat is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease. Reduce heat to low and mix 1/2 cup ketchup into beef.
• Lay a tortilla onto a work surface and place about 1/3 cup beef mixture and 1/4 cup shredded cheese onto tortilla in a line down the center. Roll tortilla over meat and cheese, fold in top and bottom to enclose filling, and finish rolling into a burrito shape. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling. Place filled tortillas into prepared baking sheet and sprinkle remaining Mexican cheese blend on top. Cover dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until dish is heated through and cheese topping has melted, 20 to 25 minutes. Stir sour cream with 1/3 cup ketchup in a bowl and top each serving with the sour cream sauce.

BACON CHEESEBURGER TACOS

Steps:

• Start by cooking the bacon. Place it on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake the bacon in the oven at 400 degrees for 10-12 minutes, until it reaches the level of crispness you desire.
• While the bacon is cooking, prepare the sriracha animal sauce. You just need to stir all the ingredients together. Then set aside.
• Next, slice the tomato, onion, and avocado. When slicing the tomatoes, slice them into large half round slices.
• Form 4-5 patties using the ground beef. The patties should be thin and about the size of your palm. Since burgers get fat in the middle as they cook I like to make the center of the burger a little thinner so when it fattens up when it cooks the burger are a consistent thickness. Note: I made 5 patties with 1 pound of ground beef. If you want slightly bigger burgers, make 4 quarter pounders.
• Once the bacon is ready it is go time! Heat a skillet or grill pan over high heat. Add just enough butter to coat the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle the burger patties with salt and pepper, and add them to the pan. Then add the slices of red onion and cook them alongside the burgers.
• Let the burgers cook for 2 minutes and then flip them. Flip the red onion too. Top the burgers with the cheese and cook for another 2 minutes. The burgers should the thin and they will cook very quickly.
• Now you need to assemble the tacos. I like to quickly heat up the tortillas first, I place them over a gas burner and one by one I heat them over a medium flame for 4 seconds a side.
• To assemble the tacos, first slice the burgers in half, and break the slices of bacon in half. Fill each tortilla with the lettuce, then a half round slice of tomato, some avocado, a burger (use both halves of one burger), some grilled onions, some pickles, and about a teaspoon of the animal sauce. Continue until all of the burgers are assembled, and then eat!
