Stuffed Chorizo Burgers with Tomatillo Salsa image

I created this chorizo burger for my new boyfriend and his family for our first meeting. Needless to say, they loved the recipe and fell in love with me, too! These burgers go great with plantain chips or a spicy potato salad from the grocer. -Vivi Taylor, Middleburg, Florida
