Ultimate Tex-Mex Fusion Burgers: The Exotic Twist

    I cannot begin to tell you how amazingly good these are!! I have had this recipe saved forever and I have always eyed it to make. I finally got all the ingredients to make it and OMG it is just amazing in flavor and such a yummy finger food. It is rather time consuming, but oh so worth it! used the scoop style tortilla chips and went exactly by the recipe except for the salsa, I didn't use the tequila and I adding chopped onion and 2-3 cloves of minced garlic, salt and pepper, the way I like it. I did cook the mini burgers for 10 min. then set the oven on broil for 5 more minutes to get the tops toasty and drained off the fat. I do recommend to let the burgers cool a little first before assembling because when you place them on the tortillas while they are hot and juicy, the tortilla chips get soggy fast. I had leftovers the next day, and wanted to assemble them fast and left off the refried beans, and they were still delicious this way and you didn't miss them. So next time I may skip the step of the beans since it added so much extra time during assembling. I think this recipe would be an amazing recipe for regular burgers as well! Thank you so much for the recipe! It is an absolute favorite that I will make again and again!
