Cooking Steps
- In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 lb of lean ground beef or turkey. Season generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the meat is well-browned and fully cooked, with no pink remaining. Once cooked, drain any excess fat and set aside.
- While the meat cooks, prepare your base for the High-Protein Cheeseburger Bowls. Chop fresh lettuce, or if you prefer grains, cook quinoa, brown rice, or cauliflower rice according to package instructions. Aim for tender grains and crisp, fresh lettuce.
- Slice cherry tomatoes, dill pickles, and red onion, arranging them on a cutting board for easy assembly. If desired, chop avocado and crumble cooked bacon for extra richness and crunch.
- In a small bowl, whisk together ½ cup of low-fat Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon of mustard, and 1 tablespoon of ketchup. Add in a pinch of garlic powder and paprika, along with salt and pepper to taste. Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Start with a generous layer of your selected base—lettuce or grains—then top with the cooked meat. Add on the diced tomatoes, pickles, onions, cheese, and any additional toppings you desire.
- Drizzle your creamy sauce over the assembled High-Protein Cheeseburger Bowls. Top with a fried egg or crispy bacon for an extra layer of flavor if desired.
