Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef (85% lean recommended)
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 slices cheddar cheese
  • 2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
  • 1 cup chopped tomato
  • 1/2 cup chopped red onion
  • 1/4 cup dill pickle slices
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons mustard
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise

Instructions

  1. Place ground beef in a bowl. Add onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix gently with your hands until combined.
  2. Form the meat mixture into four equal patties.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until cooked through to your preference.
  4. During the last minute of cooking, place one slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty. Cover the skillet briefly to melt the cheese.
  5. While the meat cooks, prepare the bowl base by dividing the shredded lettuce among four serving bowls.
  6. Top the lettuce in each bowl with chopped tomato, red onion, and pickle slices.
  7. Place one cheeseburger patty on top of the vegetables in each bowl.
  8. Drizzle ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise over the contents of each bowl. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a lower carb option, skip any added sugar in your condiments.
  • You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for the beef. Adjust cooking time as needed.
  • Prepare the chopped vegetables ahead of time if you need to save a few minutes during cooking.
