About the Recipe
A cheeseburger salad is a deconstructed version of a traditional cheeseburger, featuring all the classic components of a burger but served over a bed of lettuce instead of a bun. It typically includes cooked ground beef seasoned with burger spices, melted cheese, diced tomatoes, onions, pickles, and sometimes bacon, all served atop a bed of crisp lettuce. The salad is often drizzled with a creamy dressing or topped with a dollop of ketchup and mustard to mimic the flavors of a cheeseburger. It offers a lighter, low-carb option while still capturing the essence of a classic burger. Recipe by @skinnytaste
