Cheesy Chipotle Sliders with Guacamole

Cheesy Chipotle Slider - what a fabulous idea. I fist saw this in the Men's Journal, I never follow recipes but I did enjoy reading the recipe. I totally took the idea and ran with it. The finished burger totally rocks, I added onion and garlic along with the chopped chipotle peppers in the adobo sauce. The sliders were spicy, cheesy and topped with guacamole. I garnished it with my garden tomatoes, since I still have plenty on hand. This recipe really is perfection! I used lettuce for this post but I prefer fresh cilantro, I didn't happen to have any on hand tonight, I recommend getting a little crazy with the greens and use both. These burgers are fairly small so the serving size is two per person. I found the cute little sesame seed buns at Trader Joes. I used grass feed beef, not the extra lean because you want the burger to be tender and juicy. (That is according to my husband Ted.) I hope to hear from you. Please comment below.
Bon Appetit,
