Ingredients

For the Bowls:

  • 1- 1 ½ lbs. lean ground beef drained
  • 1 head iceberg lettuce pulled apart into small chunks
  • 2 beefsteak tomatoes sliced thinly
  • 8 oz. pickle chips I use dill or bread & butter
  • 16 oz. shredded blend of cheese
  • 16 oz. white button mushrooms sliced
  • 1 large sweet onion sliced into strips
  • 1 tbsp. unsalted butter
  • a pinch of granulated sugar
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • sesame seeds optional

For the Burger Sauce:

  • 1 cup mayo
  • ½ cup ketchup
  • 4 teaspoon white vinegar
  • 4 teaspoon sweet pickle relish
  • 4 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

For the Burger Sauce:

  • Add all ingredients to a medium-sized bowl and combine until smooth. Tip: Divide into small sauce containers if meal prepping.

For the Burger Bowls:

  • Prep: Slice mushrooms and onions into strips. Heat butter in a nonstick pan over medium-low heat. Sauté mushrooms until cooked but still a little firm. Set aside in a bowl. Add the onions to the pan along with a pinch of sugar. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring frequently so they don't burn. Once golden, add to the bowl of mushrooms.
  • Add the ground beef to the same pan, chopping it into small bits with a spatula as it browns. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Once cooked through, place on a plate lined with paper towels to drain the grease.
  • To assemble bowls: lay a bed of lettuce on a large dinner plate, then pile the ground beef, onions, mushrooms, shredded cheese, tomatoes, and pickles on top. Drizzle over the Burger Sauce, and then serve.

Notes

I prefer to keep my burgers seasoned very simply - only with salt and pepper.
You may add in a dash of Worcestershire or your other usual burger seasonings if you'd like.
