Deconstructed Healthy Hamburger Bowl

Print Recipe

A vibrant, healthy bowl that combines the delicious flavors of a classic hamburger with fresh veggies, savory meat, and creamy avocado, all topped with a zesty dressing.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb Ground turkey or lean beef
  • 4 cups Romaine lettuce or spinach
  • 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
  • 1 Cucumber
  • 1/2 Red onion
  • 1/2 cup Pickles
  • 1 Avocado
  • 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese (optional)
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 2 tbsp Vinegar or lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Cook the Meat: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add a splash of olive oil to coat the pan. Add your ground turkey or lean beef. Break it up with a spatula, stirring occasionally. Season with salt, pepper, and additional spices. Cook until browned and fully cooked through (about 6-8 minutes for turkey). Drain any excess fat.
  2. Prepare the Veggies: Chop the romaine or spinach into bite-sized pieces and place it at the bottom of your serving bowl. Slice the cherry tomatoes and cucumber. Finely chop the red onion and pickles. Slice the avocado.
  3. Assemble the Bowl: Layer the browned meat on top of the greens, followed by the tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, pickles, and avocado slices. Sprinkle with cheddar cheese if using.
  4. Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, vinegar or lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Drizzle over the bowl just before serving.

Notes

Feel free to make a batch of extra dressing to keep in the fridge. Customize your bowl with different veggies or toppings as you like.
