Ingredients
Salad Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 3 heads romaine chopped
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
- ½ cup shredded cheddar
- 4 pickles chopped
- 4 slices bacon
- salt & pepper to taste
Sauce Ingredients
- ½ cup avocado mayo
- 2 tablespoon mustard
- ¼ cup honey
- ¼ cup bbq sauce
Instructions
- Combine dressing ingredients in a bowl with a whisk. Season beef with salt & pepper. Brown beef until cooked through in skillet. Set aside.
- Cooking bacon in skillet over medium heat until desired doneness. Chop into bite sized pieces once cooled. While beef and bacon are cooking, clean and chop veggies.
- Once all ingredients are cooked, begin to layer salad. Use ¼ of the total ingredients for one serving. Layer in this order - romaine, burger, bacon, cheese, avocado, tomatoes, pickles. Drizzle with 1 TB (or more depending on your liking) of the dressing.
Notes
- If you can, use ground beef crumbles rather than ground beef patties. Ground beef patties tend to dry out and are tougher than ground beef crumbles.
- Use a slotted spoon to remove ground beef crumbles from the pan to cut down on the grease.
- To make Whole30 burger sauce (similar to Big Mac thousand island dressing), omit honey and bbq sauce and add in 1 teaspoon pickle juice and 3 pickles along with 1 teaspoon paprika and ½ teaspoon salt. Blend with ½ cup mayo in a blender.
- For low carb version, use Whole30/keto burger sauce, not Chick Fil A sauce recipe. Nutrition information reflects Chick Fil A sauce.
