Tex Mex Ranch Burger
The long weekend is calling and it’s time to grill up some burgers! Sink your teeth into this saucy ranch burger and make sure to load up on the fresh toppings. This one is a little spicy, so if you’re not keen on spicy food, decrease the amount of dressing mix in the patties by about 1 tbsp for a milder, family-friendly version.
