Description
A delicious and easy smash burger bowl recipe that brings together all your favorite burger toppings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- to taste Salt and pepper
- 1 cup lettuce, chopped
- 1 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/2 cup pickles, sliced
- 1/2 cup diced onions
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese

Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add your ground beef. Season generously with salt and pepper. Allow it to cook until browned, about 5 minutes.
- Using a spatula, press the beef down flat to create a crispy surface (hence the “smash”!). Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until crispy and caramelized.
- While the beef is cooking, prepare your bowl ingredients. Start with a generous base of chopped lettuce.
- Once your beef is done, add it on top of the lettuce. Then layer in diced tomatoes, pickles, onions, and shredded cheese.
- Drizzle the mayonnaise or burger sauce over the top. If you’re feeling fancy, you can use a squeeze bottle for extra flair.
- Serve and enjoy! This dish is best enjoyed immediately, but it can easily be refrigerated for later.
Notes
- This dish is very versatile; feel free to add or remove toppings based on your preference.
- For a gluten-free option, skip the buns or use gluten-free buns.
