Avocado, Bacon and Jalapeno Burger

I first found this burger on stalkerville.net, which is an awesome website for Paleo and Whole30, and knew I had to make it right away. Bacon and avocado are two of my favorite foods so I wanted to make this right away.

Since Tom is not a fan of avocado, I opted not to stuff it in the burgers like the original recipe and used it as a topping.

Ingredients:

• 1 lb. ground beef
• 1 jalapeno, minced
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• salt and pepper 
• 4 slices bacon, cooked
• 1 avocado, sliced 
• toppings: lettuce, tomato, red onion 

Directions:
1. Preheat a grill to high heat.
2. Combine ground beef, jalapeno, garlic, salt and pepper in a bowl and form into 4-5 patties. Grill the patties for 3-4 minutes on each side or until cooked through.
3. Serve with desired toppings.

I really should have picked up another pound of ground beef and made double the amount of burgers to have leftovers. These were great. Even after the Whole30 I definitely plan on making them again.
