This made a tasty and zippy burger, thoroughly enjoyed -
Very enjoyable burger. I used 1 jalapeno pepper that gave just a hint of heat, which was perfect for us. -
Great! I made up some simple guacamole and had some leftover bacon so tossed that on top. Used cheddar instead of the pepper jack. Great recipe Paula! -
Wonderful change to the standard grilled burger! I used LaRavenscroft's Taco Seasoning recipe in place of the packet mix and it definitely makes a burger worthy to serve any guest. As a mater of fact, a young college student from church politely invited her self over for one of these burgers the next time I make them. She happened to be standing behind me when I was telling someone else just how delicious they were. Made for Ausie/NZ Swap 18 -

These were excellent. Had some fresh jalapenos from the garden. Cut this down for the 2 of us, but used 1 large jalapeno which was perfect for us. I guessed at the onion and the taco seasoning mix, which must have been pretty close. Loved the taco seasoning in this. Thanks Paula for another keeper.

I came to this site in March of 2004. It was then called Recipezaar. This site was the first on-line site that I ever joined. I first popped in 2003 while searching for a Peach Cobbler Recipe. In March of 2004, DH was having shoulder surgery and I was looking for a Split Pea Soup. Once again I found myself on Zaar as it came to be called.
Over the years I hung out and learned from some of the best home cooks in the country, I posted over 700 recipes on the site, reviewed over 3500 recipes and posted over 3000 food photos. Over the next 10 years the site made many changes and in 2010 it was sold to to Food Network and became Food.com.
Until last year we played games, talked and shared with one another. As a result of the community and the relationships I built I got to meet some wonderful people from all over the country. I also have a great number of friends that I have never meet face to face. Some of us still hang out at various places across the net.
Zaar was more than a cooking community. It was an internet community of friendship. Life is an adventure ever changing.
