Description

This burger bowls recipe is the perfect healthy alternative to traditional burgers. Packed with flavor, low in carbs, and full of nutrients, it’s ideal for meal prep or a quick, nutritious meal. Customize it with your favorite toppings for endless variations!


Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef (or turkey)
  • 4 cups mixed leafy greens (lettuce, spinach, arugula)
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (optional)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil (for drizzling)
  • 1 tbsp mustard or ketchup (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh herbs (optional)

Instructions

  • Start by cooking your ground beef or turkey in a skillet over medium heat. Season with salt and pepper and cook until browned and fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes.
  • While the meat cooks, prepare your vegetables. Wash and dry the leafy greens and arrange them in bowls.
  • Slice the avocado, red onion, and cherry tomatoes, then add them to the bowl with the greens.
  • Once the meat is cooked, add a scoop of the ground beef or turkey on top of the vegetables.
  • Drizzle with olive oil and add your favorite condiments like mustard or ketchup. Optionally, sprinkle shredded cheese and fresh herbs for extra flavor.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy your customizable burger bowl!

Notes

  • For a lower-carb option, skip the cheese or use a dairy-free version.
  • You can also add grilled chicken or a plant-based patty for different variations.
  • Great for meal prepping—just store the meat and veggies separately in airtight containers.
