1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1/2 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely minced
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 1/2 lbs ground chuck
2 tablespoons grated onions
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 slices cheddar cheese
6 hamburger buns, split and toasted
1 (8 ounce) package refrigerated guacamole
shredded lettuce (optional)
tomatoes, slices (optional)

Steps:

Process first 5 ingredients in a food processor or blender until smooth; chill.
Preheat grill to medium-high (350° to 400°). Combine ground chuck, onion, and salt; shape into 12 (4-inch) patties. Fold cheese slices into quarters; top 6 patties with folded cheese slice. Cover cheese with remaining 6 patties; pressing to seal edges.
Grill patties, covered with grill lid, over medium-high heat 5 minutes on each side or until done. For grown-up servings, serve burgers on buns with 2 tablespoons guacamole, 1 tablespoon mayonnaise mixture, and desired toppings. For plain servings, serve burgers on buns without the guacamole and mayonnaise mixture.
