SOUTHWESTERN BURGERS WITH MONTEREY JACK AND CHEDDAR

1 pound ground beef (85 percent lean)
1 medium jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
FOR SERVING:
1/2 cup chopped tomato
1/4 cup prepared salsa
1/2 cup thinly sliced lettuce
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded Cheddar cheese
4 (7-inch) flour tortillas, warmed

Combine ground beef, jalapeno pepper, cumin, salt and pepper, mixing lightly but thoroughly. Divide into 4 portions and form into oval patties, 1/2 inch thick.

Place on rack in broiler pan so burgers are 3 to 4 inches from heat. Broil 10 to 12 minutes, turning once.

Combine tomato and salsa. Top half of each tortilla with equal portions of lettuce, salsa, burger, Monterey Jack and Cheddar cheeses. Fold tortilla over burger.

Makes 4 servings
