- Build the burgers by spreading a layer of jalapeno aioli on the bottom bun, followed by a slice of lettuce, the burger, some pico de gallo and finally the top bun with more aioli.

BAJA BURGERS
These are so good if you love the taste of roasted chile's. The peppers used here are not hot at all--so good for kids too. If you can' find whole canned chilis, chopped are fine, just the whole chile's make a better texture. Ortega brand is our favorite, but use what you like.
