Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground beef (80% lean, 20% fat)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for grilling)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 large lettuce leaves (for bun replacement)
- 4 slices of cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise (preferably sugar-free)
- 1 tablespoon mustard
- 4-5 dill pickle slices
- 1/2 small onion, thinly sliced
- 1 tomato, sliced
- 2 tablespoons avocado (optional for extra creaminess)
Instructions:
- Prep the Patties: Season the ground beef with salt and pepper. Form the meat into 4 equal patties, pressing them slightly in the center to avoid puffing up during cooking.
- Cook the Patties: Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Drizzle olive oil and cook the patties for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Add a slice of cheddar cheese to each patty during the last minute of cooking and cover to melt.
- Assemble the Burger: On each plate, place a large lettuce leaf as the “bottom bun.” Spread mayonnaise and mustard on top. Add a slice of tomato, a few pickle slices, and some onion rings. Place the cooked burger patty with melted cheese on top of the veggies.
- Top and Serve: Place another lettuce leaf on top to form the “top bun.” Optional: spread avocado on the inside for extra creaminess. Serve immediately with a side of crispy keto-friendly fries or a salad!
