Southwestern Beef & Bean Burger Wraps

By cmschnettler

Kids and adults alike will love these quick, zippy burgers. The beans make the burgers a little fragile, so be careful when taking them off the broiler pan. Make it a meal: Serve a green salad and frozen mango slices for dessert.

Preparation

Step 1

1. Position oven rack in upper third of oven; preheat broiler. Coat a broiler pan with cooking spray. 2. Gently combine ground beef, beans, cilantro and jalapenos in a medium bowl (do not overmix). Shape into four 5-by-2-inch oblong patties and place on the prepared pan. 3. Broil the patties until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 165 degrees F , 12 to 14 minutes. 4. Meanwhile, mash together avocado, salsa and garlic powder in a small bowl. 5. Place tortillas on a clean work surface. Spread each with the guacamole, then sprinkle with lettuce and cheese. Top each with a burger and roll into a wrap. Serve immediately, with lime wedges. Tip: 1. To warm tortillas: Wrap in foil; bake at 300 degrees F until steaming, about 5 minutes. Or wrap in barely damp paper towels and microwave on High for 30 to 45 seconds.
