Some of the restaurants around here will let you order one of their burgers on a salad instead of a bun and I think it's a great idea. I've only had it out once but knew it would be something different to try at home. I have fallen deeply in love with this salad. I've eaten twice this week already. I think it's because you can make it different each time, the possibilities are endless. Basically any kind of burger you've ever liked in a restaurant you'll like this way too.
I'm not saying this is a healthy salad, but if you're trying to cut back on carbs this is a great idea! You can top this with all the things you would top your burger with, like ketchup and mustard or whatever. You can also just use your favorite salad dressing.
Here's what I used, but this is more of a suggestion than a recipe.
1/4 pound of ground beef, cooked.
2 slices of cheese, one for on top the burger and one to cut up in the salad.
1/2 medium tomato, diced
1 baby dill pickle, diced
1 slice of onion, kept round
handful of your favorite lettuce
Place the lettuce first on a plate or dish. Top with all your toppings, it's best if they are diced. Cover with the cooked burger and dress with condiments of your choice.
