Grilled Chile Pepper Cheeseburgers

This recipe is from Once-A-Month Cooking by Mimi Wilson and Mary Beth Lagerborg. I'm adding it here so that I can plan my recipe list and shopping list for once-a-month cooking! Prep and cooking time are estimates, as I haven't made this yet.

1. In a medium bowl, combine green onion, yogurt, jalapenos, pepper and salt. Add beef and mix well.
2. Shape beef mixture into 8 patties about 3/4 inch thick. Place wax paper between the patties and freeze in a 1-gallon freezer bag.
