We're still experiencing temps in the 90s here in New England, so I've been making meals that come together quickly and don't heat up the house. I've actually made these twice, once indoors on a grill pan on top of the stove because a thunderstorm rolled through at dinner time, and once on the outdoor grill.
I used the variation on the dressing suggested by its creator, Laurie R. for the dressing, which was using 1 tablespoon each of ketchup and mustard along with the ranch. So good! Filling, but not heavy. Next time, I'd melted the cheese on the burger and add some chopped crispy bacon. You can never go wrong with bacon!
