Cheezeno Burger

Cheezeno Burger by Sassafras Eclectic Food Joint

A Dairy Month special! A vegetarian twist on a classic with a Panela cheese “patty” between the buns. Topped with chipotle cream and mixed greens tossed in a Serrano Vinaigrette. Juicy, delicious, and oh-so-cheesy.
Stop by Sassafras in Carson City this month to try it. Can’t get to Carson? Give it a try at home and let us know how it turns out.
