The Culinary Art

Today I had a sudden sandwich inspiration: Chili Relleno Burger! Kind of a twist on the classic patty and egg sandwich, amped-up with some Mexican heat. (If you've never had a chili relleno, it is essentially a cheese-stuffed green chili fried in an egg batter.) So, this idea combines three of my favorite things to top a burger with: fried egg, green chili and cheese.

Here's how I imagined it: two slices of toasted wheat bread with regular or chipotle mayo, hamburger patty topped with a chili relleno, tomato and lettuce. So simple, I can't believe I never thought of it before, or found it on a menu somewhere. I can''t wait to try this. I'll definitely report back my results with a photo. If anyone beats me to it, tell me how you liked yours and send me your photo!

You're welcome.
