Ingredients:

1 lb 100% lean grass-fed ground buffalo
1 cup pico de gallo
1 cup shredded reduced fat cheddar jack cheese (Sargento)
8 small whole wheat flour tortillas, cut smaller if desired (La Banderita)
spray oil
salt and fresh pepper

Directions:

Form 4 flat patties, as thin as you can. Season with salt and pepper. Heat a pan to medium-high heat; when hot, lightly spray the pan with oil and add the burgers. Cook burgers about 2 minutes on each side or to your liking. Set aside.

Clean the pan and heat on medium heat. Lightly spray with oil and place 4 tortillas on the pan (if your pan is small, you can do one at a time). Place 2 tbsp cheese on each tortilla, then 2 tbsp pico de gallo.

Top with buffalo burger, then remaining 2 tbsp pico de gallo and 2 tbsp cheese on each. Place the other tortilla on top; flip and cook until the cheese melts on the other side.
