Ingredients

2 hamburger patties cooked from fresh or frozen
3 cups romaine lettuce shredded
12 cherry tomatoes cut in half
2 red onion slices (or diced)
½ cup sliced pickles
4 tablespoons Ranch or Blue Cheese salad dressing
sliced cheese optional

Instructions

Prep the vegetables as needed. Wash, dry, & cut in bite-sized pieces.
Cook the hamburger patties until medium-well (160°F internal temperature). Any method works; bbq grill, flat-top griddle, cast iron pan, air fryer, oven, etc.
Dice into bite-sized chunks.
2 hamburger patties
Divide the lettuce evenly between two individual bowls. Top each with the hamburger pieces from one of the patties.
3 cups romaine lettuce
Top with equal amounts of the vegetables. Serve with dressing of your choices
12 cherry tomatoes, 2 red onion, ½ cup sliced pickles, 4 tablespoons Ranch or Blue Cheese salad dressing
Enjoy immediately.

Notes

STORING:

Enjoy with dressing immediately or store for later without the dressing.
Place each bowl in an air-tight container without the dressing added. Store in the fridge for up to 48 hours - add dressing when ready to eat.

OTHER TOPPING IDEAS & VARIATIONS:

Avocado, Fried Egg, Bacon, Grilled Onions or Mushrooms, Jalapenos, BBQ sauce, etc.
Substitute beef with ground turkey or chicken burgers, black bean patties, meatless patties, or fried chicken patties.

NOTE: the nutritional information is for the vegetables and a 80/20 ground beef patty (no dressing or cheese)
