Nothing says "summer" like hamburgers on the grill. But why settle for the ordinary when you can serve this version that features a surprise filling of cheese, onion and green pepper. - Debby Murray, West Middleton, Indiana

Ingredients

1 pound ground beef
4 slices pepper Jack cheese or Monterey Jack cheese
4 slices sweet onion
4 slices green pepper
4 onion rolls, split

Directions

Shape beef into eight thin patties. Place a slice of cheese, onion and green pepper on four patties. Top with another patty; press edges to seal. Grill until no longer pink. Serve on rolls.

In general, sweet onions have thin, light outer skins and contain a high level of water and sugar. These onions (including Vidalia and Walla Walla) are typically in season from April through August.
