Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/2 cup pickles, sliced
- 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/3 cup burger sauce or Thousand Island dressing
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef. Season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, breaking up the meat, until browned and cooked through.
- While the beef cooks, prepare the vegetables: chop the romaine lettuce, halve the cherry tomatoes, slice the pickles, and thinly slice the red onion.
- Divide the lettuce evenly among 4 bowls. Top each with browned ground beef.
- Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the warm beef so it melts slightly.
- Add cherry tomatoes, pickles, and red onion to each bowl. Drizzle with burger sauce or dressing just before serving.
