    Inspiration for this Taco Burger Recipe

    I’m lucky to have a Sprouts Farmer’s Market just a couple of miles from our house. And thanks to them for reaching out and asking me to create a burger with some of their sprouts brand ingredients Fun!

    A trip to Sprouts Market, with their mountains of fresh fruits and vegetables, barrels of wholesome grains, a full service deli, meat and seafood counters is sure to inspire everyone to eat healthier.

    This isn’t just a mission. It’s their passion. And did I mention the prices won’t break your budget. As their slogan says “Healthy Living for Less”  Great store!

    Sprouts Taco Seasoning Mix

    Grilling season is upon us and the first thing that hit our hot grates this season was a sizzling juicy burger. For this burger assignment, you’ll find an assortment of Sprouts Farmer’s Market South of the Border ingredients.

    Aioli Sauce for Burgers

    For my burger, I made a mixture of mayonnaise, panko bread crumbs and Sprouts Farmer’s Market Taco Seasoning, blending it with ground beef and forming patties.

    Sprouts market jarred salsas. Simply the best jarred salsas available.

    The biggest take away from this whole Sprouts adventure is their jarred salsas.

    Simply the best I’ve tasted. Since I can’t find a jarred salsa that I love, I usually make my own salsa from fresh ingredients. Sprouts has changed that. The Mango and Black Bean is a perfect blend of sweet and spicy, the Chia, Quinoa and Flax is surprisingly a great salsa blend.

    And my favorite? That Kale and Vegetable. Bob and I both loved it, and felt healthy loving it. And it made a unique aioli sauce for burgers.

    For the Salsa Aioli I blended Sprouts Kale and Vegetable Salsa with creamy mayonnaise for a creamy kicked-up burger sauce.

    And in my opinion, there are few foods better than a burger!

    Build That Burger

    To build my taco burger I started with some beautiful curly green lettuce, the taco seasoned meat, a healthy drizzle of the salsa aioli, a beautiful slice of tomato and a couple rings of sweet onion. Just a few slices of avocado was all we needed for a side.

    The beef was creamy and Southwestern-worthy seasoned with the taco blend. The aioli was a divine compliment.  Thanks to Sprouts Farmer’s Market for the inspiration for a great burger.

      “And in my opinion, there are few foods better than a burger! ” – Bev’s thought exactly. Great looking burger – never thought about putting mayo in the meat.

      We got a Sprouts this past year and I love it. (Especially love their store-brand tortillas.) What a great idea to add a bit of mayo to the burger. Genius!!!! Thank YOU for this inspiration.
