burger bowls

These loaded burger bowls are filled with classic burger toppings bursting with all the juicy flavor you crave, but none of the bun.

Burger Bowls

beef

Worcestershire sauce

Kosher salt

garlic powder

black pepper

sautéed onion

bacon

chopped pickles

cheddar cheese

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Crumble beef in a large bowl and add Worcestershire sauce and seasonings, then work together with your hands.

Once combined, work the beef into each well of a muffin pan until it forms a bowl. The meat will shrink slightly while cooking so I recommend ensuring the beef raises higher than the lip,

Fill the bowls with the toppings of your choice, such as onion, bacon, and pickles. Then top with cheese.

Place in the oven and bake for 15 minutes.

Remove from oven, let cool for 5 minutes and serve.

Burger Bowls Recipe With Homemade Special Sauce

barbecue sauce

mayo

pickle juice

Dijon mustard

ketchup

onion powder

smoked paprika

salt and pepper (to taste)

romaine lettuce

⅓ cup sliced raw red onion

cherry tomatoes (chopped)

bacon (chopped)

In a small bowl, combine the BBQ sauce, mayonnaise, pickle juice, and Dijon mustard. Stir well and set aside.

Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove and drain excess grease on a paper towel–lined plate.

In the same skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat. Drain any excess fat. Add the Dijon mustard, ketchup, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper, and stir well so the spices coat the beef evenly. Taste and adjust for seasoning. Remove from heat.

Chop the romaine lettuce, slice the cherry tomatoes in half, thinly slice the red onion, and cut the pickles into your preferred size.

To assemble the bowls, start with a bed of chopped lettuce. Top with the seasoned ground beef, tomatoes, red onion, pickles, and crumbled bacon.

Drizzle the burger sauce over everything and toss lightly to combine. Serve immediately and enjoy!

We could have this every week! It’s so good and everyone loves it :)

Easy, delicious, and a crowd pleaser! My teens down to toddlers loved this meal. I doubled for my large family, and now I wish I’d tripled it for leftovers. So yummy and quick! I’ll definitely make this again.

Burger Bowls are delicious, quick and easy to make, versatile, and we really appreciate eating a "burger" without a bun; this one is a keeper. 
Thanks, Lisa!

We loved having this for dinner tonight. Didn't have to fire up the bbq and yet, this Burger Bowl had all the flavor of a summertime burger. We did add some grated cheese as a topping. Yummy!

What a simple and delicious spin on two family favorites! Definitely a keeper! Thank you for the inspiration!

All the flavors of a classic burger, no bun required! Loaded with seasoned beef, roasted sweet potatoes, crisp romaine, and a creamy lightened-up burger sauce, it&#039;s a high-protein dinner the whole family will love.

Ground Beef Burger Bowls with Healthy Homemade Sauce

sweet potatoes

olive oil

beef (93/7)

romaine lettuce (shredded

½ red onion (thinly sliced)

tomato

dill pickle spears (sliced)

salt and pepper

low-fat Greek yogurt

salt

Preheat oven to 400°F. Cut the sweet potatoes into one-inch cubes, or a bit thinner for fries, and place them on a large baking sheet. Drizzle with a half tablespoon of olive oil, and bake 20 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Season with salt and pepper as soon as they come out of the oven.

While the potatoes are baking, cook the meat. Add the ground beef to a cast-iron or nonstick skillet and heat over medium. Cook the beef, breaking it up as it cooks until it's browned and no longer pink.

Make the sauce: Whisk all the ingredients together in a small bowl, then set aside.

Assemble: Add the romaine to the bottom of a bowl, then top it with the cooked ground beef, sweet potatoes, onion, tomato, and pickles. Serve the sauce on the side or drizzle it over the top and enjoy!

Yum! Filling and the sauce was delicious.

I love 'bowls' and this recipe nails all the delicious flavors together.

I've made this three times in the past month or so and we have loved it every time. I made it with ground chicken last night and it was also delicious. I also use non-fat Greek yogurt for the sauce and it works very well.  Great recipe!

This is so delicious!  It was very easy and quick to make.  
My husband watched me make it and was skeptical... and then he ate it!
He couldn't stop eating it!  Definitely a keeper!

Wow!! This recipe is delicious! It was so easy to pull together and the sauce is AMAZING! I’ll definitely be making this again.

HIGH PROTEIN BURGER BOWLS  | No Bun, Lots of Flavor!

Elevate your grill season with these easy to make and High Protein Burger Bowls that come with a healthy homemade Greek yogurt sauce!

High Protein Burger Bowls with Sauce

Pound Ground Meat (Lean (I like 93/7) Beef, Chicken,

Teaspoon Garlic Powder

½ Teaspoon Onion Powder

Teaspoon Paprika (Smoked)

¾ Teaspoon Black Pepper

Salt

Red Pepper (*Optional

Worcestershire Sauce

Teaspoons Mustard (Dijon or Yellow (I use Yellow))

Tablespoon Mustard (Dijon or Yellow (I use Yellow))

Tablespoon Ketchup

Tablespoon Relish (Dill

½ Teaspoon Paprika (Smoked)

½ Teaspoon Garlic Powder

¼ Teaspoon Onion Powder

Black Pepper

Lettuce (or Other Leafy Greens (I use a Spring Mix))

Onion (Your Choice Amount)

Tomatoes (Your Choice Amount)

Pickles (Your Choice Amount)

Tablespoon Bacon Bits

Potatoes (*Optional Baby or Other Cooked Carb Source (See: Notes))

Turn a burner on medium heat and add your Oil into a stovetop pan over it

Once it heats up, add and break up your Ground Meat

Put in the rest of your Meat Mix ingredients

Keep everything moving/breaking it up for around 5-8 minutes or until your Ground Meat has browned

Remove it from the heat

Meat Mix

Mix all of your ingredients together for your Greek Yogurt Sauce until smooth

Greek Yogurt Sauce

In a bowl, add your choice &quot;bowl&quot; ingredients. My preference? Lettuce (Leafy Greens), Onion slices, a few small Tomatoes, Pickle slices, and Bacon Bits

Additionally, if you want a carb source, you can add in cooked Potatoes (Baby!), homemade fries (sweet potato!), rice, quinoa, croutons, and so on

Pour in half of your Meat Mix

Top it with half of your Greek Yogurt Sauce

Fantastic recipe.  The sauce OMG is SO good.  Will definitely be a repeat meal.

Amazing, tastes just like a burger without the mess (and easier to re-heat for meal prep). This is delicious, but a tip: do NOT sub out smoked paprika for regular. It contributes hugely to the burger flavor. I added brown rice to the bowl to bulk it up a bit and it's SO GOOD. 10/10 yummy

Some great ideas here and the combination of flavors and textures is awesome. My high protein diet helps keep my diabetes in check without any medications. I don't get hunger nags with 4 smaller meals averaging 25-35 grams protein. May I offer a nutritional gift now that I’ve signed up with my subscription? Buy 80/20 ground beef and do as the USDA recommends and have less fat than 90/10 ground beef! You won’t need any extra oil to brown your meat, extra savings there, too. Brown, crumble, drain on paper towel. Put into colander, rinse with hot (like hot tub hot, about 100-1204 degrees) then allow to drain. Back into either the skillet or reserve for whatever recipe you’d like. It sounds like a lot of extra steps but only takes a couple minutes more and you’d cut about 100 calories and 11 grams of fat from each bowl.

We used ground turkey for this and added in a couple chopped up fried eggs. Everyone loved them, the sauce was SO GOOD!!
