Big Mac Bowl
Craving a Big Mac without the carbs, gluten, or need to go through a drive-thru? This Big Mac Bowl has got you covered! Shredded lettuce, ground beef, shredded cheese, onion, and pickles, all topped with a tangy Big Mac sauce!
Ingredients
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- ½ white onion diced (plus extra for topping)
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- Salt & pepper to taste
For the Bowl:
- 4 cups iceberg lettuce shredded
- 1 cup freshly shredded cheese cheddar or American
- Dill pickle slices
- Sesame seeds for topping
For the Big Mac sauce:
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon ketchup
- 1 tablespoon pickle relish
- 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
- ¼ teaspoon honey
Instructions
- Heat a skillet over medium-high. Add a light drizzle of olive oil, ground beef, diced onion (reserve some for topping), salt, and pepper. Break up meat with a spatula and cook 7–10 minutes until browned. Stir in garlic and cook 1 minute more. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain and cool slightly.
- In a small bowl, whisk together mayo, ketchup, relish, mustard, and honey until smooth.
- Divide shredded lettuce between bowls. Top with beef, cheddar cheese, pickle slices, extra raw onion, a drizzle of Big Mac sauce, and sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Let the beef cool slightly so that it is warm but not hot before assembling bowls. This helps prevent the lettuce from wilting.
- Store ground beef, lettuce, toppings, and sauce separately in airtight containers in the fridge. If stored separately each component lasts 3-4 days.
- Once combined, this salad bowl should be eaten within 24 hours.
- This recipe is naturally gluten-free & low-carb.
