Calories 420 kcal
- 1 pound ground beef 80/20
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 8 cups chopped romaine lettuce
- 2 medium tomatoes diced
- 1 small red onion thinly sliced
- 1 cup dill pickle slices
- 1 large avocado sliced
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 2 tablespoons dill relish
- Pinch of garlic powder
- Dash of paprika
- Optional: 2 cups cooked rice or cauliflower rice
Mix mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, relish, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper to create the special sauce. Refrigerate while preparing other ingredients.
In a large bowl, combine ground beef with Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just incorporated.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook the beef for 7-8 minutes, breaking it into crumbles until no pink remains.
If using cheese, sprinkle over hot beef in the last minute of cooking and cover briefly to melt.
Prepare all vegetables: wash and chop lettuce, dice tomatoes, slice onions and avocado.
Assemble bowls by first adding a base of lettuce and optional rice, then topping with beef, vegetables, cheese, and a drizzle of special sauce.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor contrast.
