Creamy Dill Pickle Smashed Burger Tacos

When you’re craving juicy burgers and tacos and dill pickles…this recipe has you covered. It’s a triple threat of tastiness, starting with seasoned and ‘cheesened’ ground beef that gets smashed under a warm tortilla. Once cooked, you’ll flip this open-face smashed burger taco and top it with the prepared Creamy Dill Pickle Chopped Salad Kit. It’s a festive combination that’s crunchy, cheesy, and lip-smacking good.

Ingredients

  • 1 Taylor Farms Creamy Dill Pickle Chopped Salad Kit
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (such as cheddar or Monterey Jack)
  • 1/2 cup chopped red onions
  • 8 small tortillas (corn or flour)
  • 1 Roma tomato, diced
  • 1 pickle, diced
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, shredded cheese, chopped red onions, salt, and pepper. Use your hands or a spoon to mix everything together until well combined.
  2. Divide the burger mixture into equal portions and form them into patties.
  3. Preheat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat.
  4. Place the burger patties on the skillet, place a tortilla onto each patty and press down for 5-10 seconds with the bottom side of a bowl or a large flat spatula.
  5. When cooked through, carefully flip the burger taco. Remove from heat and set aside.
  6. Prepare the Taylor Farms Creamy Dill Pickle Chopped Salad Kit according to the package instructions. Add diced tomatoes and pickles and toss until combined. 
  7. When ready to serve, add the prepared salad to the burger tacos and enjoy!

A lot of small things make this recipe really special. To start, you may not often mix shredded cheese and chopped onion in with your ground beef before making burger patties—until now! It’s an easy way to make sure your burger is flavorful, cheesy, and juicy all at once. 

What about the smash? Get that satisfying smash with the back of your spatula, and while some worry that it will lose juiciness, we’re not too concerned. Enjoy your warm tortilla smashed onto the burger for a flip-onto-the-plate taco moment. 

If you haven’t become a fan of the Creamy Dill Pickle Chopped Salad Kit yet, this is what the fuss is all about: It’s green leaf lettuce, paired with cauliflower, kale, green and red cabbage, then topped with dill pickle-seasoned brioche crouton crumbles, feta cheese and dill pickle seasoning. If that’s not enough pickle-licious flavor, it gets tossed in creamy dill pickle ranch, with real pickle pieces in the dressing. That’s a lot of pickles!

Enjoy this decadent recipe any night of the week.
