Recipe for Stuffed Cheeseburgers

If you haven’t tried a taco burger before, let me be the first to say, you should! Taco burgers are a quick and easy dinner that fills you up! These taco burgers have a delightful kick from the taco seasoning and are then topped with some salsa, guacamole, and lettuce for the ultimate burger!

These burgers are best when grilled but can also be baked or fried in a skillet. And the best part is that they can be served with just about everything! Find the recipe and full directions below.

What Ingredients Are in Stuffed Cheeseburgers?

• Cheese Slices – We like to put pepper jack cheese or just regular cheddar cheese on these burgers.
• Hamburger Buns – If you have time, you can make my homemade hamburger buns which will absolutely knock these burgers out of the park!
• Toppings – Tomatoes, lettuce, onions, pickles, etc.

Gluten Free Stuffed Cheeseburgers

These stuffed cheeseburgers are naturally gluten free! It can be hard however to find gluten free buns. I have used these Franz hamburger buns. Of course they do not taste like normal hamburger buns, but they are still good for a gluten free bun. Just a tip though, I like to warm them up first before adding my burger to the bun.

Storage

Any leftover patties can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Just reheat the patty and assemble the burgers again for leftovers.
