Chef Mark Jeffers of Manzanita restaurant at the Ritz-Carlton in Lake Tahoe, California is stopping by TODAY to share two of his light and fresh grilling recipes.

He shows us how to make flame-kissed salmon burgers and crab-stuffed avocados.

"Dungeness crab and fresh avocado are two of California's quintessential ingredients,” says Jeffers. “This dish utilizes them both beautifully and puts an innovative twist on classic flavors."
