Ingredients

Burger Meat

1 lb lean ground beef
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper

Special Sauce

3 tablespoon mayonnaise
2 tablespoon ketchup
1 teaspoon mustard
2 tablespoon relish
½ teaspoon lemon juice
¼ teaspoon each: garlic powder, paprika, onion powder
Pinch of salt and pepper

Bowls

1 head iceberg lettuce
1 pint cherry tomatoes
½ red onion, sliced
1 cup sliced dill pickles
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
½ cup banana peppers

Instructions

Place a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until brown, about 6 minutes. Be sure to break it up. Once cooked, add the seasonings and worcestershire sauce. You can prepare this in advance and store in the fridge or add directly to the bowls.
In a small bowl, stir together the burger sauce ingredients. Prepare ahead of time and store in the fridge or add directly to the bowls.
To build the burger bowls, start with a large handful of lettuce. Add your toppings of choice, drizzle with some special sauce, and mix! The beef can be served hot or cool. This is a great meal to set up in an assembly line so everyone can choose their toppings. Enjoy!

Notes

You could use ground beef, ground turkey, ground chicken, or a plant-based alternative.
Pre-make bowls for easy grab-and-go lunches.
