- 1 tsp black pepper
- 4 slices cheddar cheese slices
- 4 slices bacon
- 4 tbsp BBQ sauce
- 1 whole ripe avocado
- 1 tbsp lime juice

- 2 tbsp crumbled feta cheese
- 4 tbsp hummus
- 1 cup baby spinach leaves
- 4 pieces portobello mushroom caps

Instructions
Preheat your grill or a skillet over medium-high heat.
Divide the ground beef into two halves. Shape one half into four burger patties for the Classic Cheeseburger and BBQ Bacon Burger. Shape the other half into four slightly thinner patties for the Spicy Guacamole burger.
Season the patties with salt and pepper on both sides.
For the Classic Cheeseburger: Cook one set of patties for 4-5 minutes on each side. Add a slice of cheddar cheese during the last minute of cooking and allow it to melt. Toast the buns lightly on the grill. Assemble with lettuce, tomato, and any additional condiments of choice.
For the BBQ Bacon Burger: Cook another set of patties for 4-5 minutes on each side. Brush each patty with BBQ sauce during the last minute of cooking. Cook the bacon in a skillet until crispy. Top each patty with bacon and assemble on toasted buns with lettuce or any other toppings you like.
For the Spicy Guacamole Burger: Mash the avocado in a bowl and mix with lime juice, diced jalapeño, cumin, and a pinch of salt. Cook the thinner patties for 3-4 minutes per side. Toast the buns, spread guacamole on the bottom bun, and top with the patty, lettuce, and tomato.
For the Veggie Mediterranean Burger: Brush the portobello mushroom caps with olive oil and season with salt. Grill the mushrooms for 4-5 minutes per side. Spread hummus on the bottom bun, add grilled mushrooms, baby spinach, chopped olives, and crumbled feta. Top with the bun and serve.
Serve all burgers with your choice of sides like fries, salad, or onion rings. Enjoy!
