A healthy and protein-packed Burger In A Bowl that combines juicy ground beef patties with fresh vegetables and quinoa, perfect for a low-carb, nutritious meal without the bun.

Ingredients

Scale

Beef Patty

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 slices cheddar cheese

Bowl Base and Toppings

  • 2 cups cooked quinoa
  • 1 cup lettuce, chopped
  • 1 tomato, sliced
  • 1/2 cup pickles
  • 1/4 onion, sliced

Sauce

  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise or your favorite sauce

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Patty: In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly and form the mixture into evenly sized patties suitable for your bowl servings.
  2. Cook the Beef: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Place the patties in the skillet and cook for about 4 to 5 minutes per side. During the last minute of cooking, add a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty to melt.
  3. Assemble the Bowl: In individual serving bowls, start by adding a base of cooked quinoa. Then layer on chopped lettuce, sliced tomato, pickles, and sliced onion evenly over the quinoa.
  4. Add the Patty: Place the hot, cheese-topped burger patty over the vegetables in each bowl. Drizzle with mayonnaise or your preferred sauce to add creaminess and flavor.
  5. Enjoy: Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious and nutritious burger in a bowl, a perfect low-carb alternative to a traditional burger.

Notes

  • You can substitute ground beef with ground turkey or plant-based meat for a different protein option.
  • Use Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise for a lighter sauce alternative.
  • Adding avocado slices can enhance creaminess and provide healthy fats.
  • For extra flavor, toast the cooked quinoa with a bit of garlic or herbs before adding it to the bowl.
