Preparation
Step 1
Directions:
In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise and onion. Refrigerate until ready to serve burgers.
Preheat grill. Form ground beef into 8 thin 4-ounce patties. Place 1/4 of the shredded cheese in center of 4 patties. Top each with a remaining patty and gently seal edges together with a fork. Season with salt and pepper.
Grill until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the meat registers 160° F.
Separate buns, brush with olive oil and grill until lightly browned. Spread mayonnaise mixture on inside of buns and stack the burger on the bun. Add tomato slices, avocado and lettuce.
