Southwestern Green Chile Cheeseburgers from Weight Watchers Family Meals

Serves 4 | 20 Minutes or Less Directions

1. Mix together beef, salsa, chili powder, and salt in large bowl just until combined well. With damp hands, shape mixture into 4 (½-inch-thick) patties.

2. Spray grill pan with nonstick spray and set over medium heat. Put patties in grill pan and grill until browned. Turn burgers; top with Swiss cheese and grill until cheese is melted and instant-read thermometer inserted into side of burger registers 160°F, about 5 minutes longer.

3. Place lettuce and burgers on bottoms of English muffins. Top each with 2 tomato slices, 2 onion slices, and tops of muffins.

Cook’s Tip: For a touch of smokiness, use chipotle chile powder instead of regular chili powder. Chipotles are jalapeños that have been dried and smoked over a fire.
