RECIPE: Grilled Pico Burgers

For those that like food with Mexican flavor, these burgers are for you. They’re packed with flavor. The patties are filled with pico de gallo veggies and spices. This delicious grilled burger is truly unique and we loved the bits of avocado and sour cream. They tone the heat down a bit. Top with salsa and you have a gourmet burger prepared at home.
