Ingredients (per serving):

- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup cooked macaroni
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese

- 1 hamburger bun
- Optional toppings: lettuce, tomato, ketchup, mustard


Cooking Tips:

- Use lean ground beef to avoid excess grease.

- Use a sharp cheddar cheese for maximum flavor.

1. Cook the macaroni according to package instructions and set aside.
2. In a small saucepan, melt the butter and add the shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted and combined with the butter.
3. In a bowl, mix the cooked macaroni with the cheese sauce.
4. Form the ground beef into two equal-sized patties.
5. Spoon the mac and cheese mixture onto one of the patties, leaving a small border around the edge.
6. Place the other patty on top of the mac and cheese mixture and press the edges together to seal.
7. Grill or cook the burgers on a skillet over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired level of doneness.
8. Serve the burgers on a bun with your favorite toppings.
