Bacon Cheeseburger Salad

When you're craving a bacon cheeseburger, but make it slightly healthier!

I have posted many salads at this point and may be beating a dead horse by once again explaining how I love eating salads for dinner. But I really like salads for dinner but also want them to be somewhat filling and these kinds of recipes are great for that because there are filling toppings. This one has all the yumminess of a bacon cheeseburger but without the buns. It's a great low carb option, but also could definitely work in a pinch if you forgot your hamburger buns or they go moldy or whatever. The dressing is easy and wonderful too!

What you need:

For the Dressing:

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 Tbsp. ketchup
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp. heavy cream
  • 1 tsp. yellow mustard

For the Salad:

  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 2 large heads romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 1 cup (4 oz.) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • Dill pickle slices, chopped
  • 3/4 cup bacon bits

Directions:

  1. For the Dressing: Combine all ingredients and refrigerate while you prep the salad.
  2. For the Salad: Cook and crumble ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season with salt and pepper. Let it cool slightly.
  3. Serve salad with lettuce tossed with cheese, chopped pickles, and bacon bits topped with ground beef and dressing.
