  • 1 1/4 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon all purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • salt, to taste
  • Pinch of cayenne pepper

Directions
  1. Add the ground beef, taco seasoning, 1/4 cup of shredded cheese and some salt and pepper to taste to a mixing bowl. Mix well with your hands to combine.
  2. Shape the mixture into 4 burger patties.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan on a medium setting. Add the burgers and fry for 4 minutes on one side. Flip and cook for another 4 minutes or until well browned and cooked through in the middle.
  4. Make the cheese sauce. Melt the butter in a saucepan on a medium heat. Add the flour and stir to form a paste. Cook for another 2 minutes.
  5. Gradually add the milk, whisking as you go, until fully combined. Bring to a boil and stir until thickened.
  6. Mix in the cayenne and salt.
  7. Remove the pan from the heat and stir through 1 cup of shredded cheese.
  8. Assemble the burgers. Add a few tortilla chips to the bottom of each burger bun. Place the burgers on top, then spoon over some of the cheese sauce.
  9. Top with avocado, jalapeños, and salsa, then finish with some more tortilla chips and place the top of the burger bun on top.
