Big Mac in a Bowl

This recipe will have you looking forward to lunch!
​It’s a healthier version of a Big Mac… and it’s in a bowl.
Don’t be put off by the number of ingredients. Basically, all you do is pour all the ingredients into a bowl and toss with a healthier (homemade) version of Thousand Island dressing. It’s super filling because of all the veggies, but it won’t weigh you down.

(1 serving)

• 4 oz (115 g) lean ground meat (beef, chicken, or turkey)
• 1 green onion, chopped
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 3 cups (150 g)  shredded lettuce or coleslaw
• 3 dill pickle chips, chopped
• 2 Tbsp shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
• ½ large tomato, chopped​

For the special sauce: 

• 2 tbsp plain Greek yogurt
• 1 Tbsp mayo
• ½ tbsp ketchup
• 1 tsp mustard
• ½ tbsp relish
• ½ tsp onion powder
• Salt & pepper, to taste

Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the meat, onion, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently until the meat is crumbled and fully cooked through.

While it is cooking, mix all of the sauce ingredients together in a small bowl. Taste and adjust seasonings. Set aside.
​
Place the shredded lettuce or coleslaw in a serving bowl. Add the cooked meat mixture, along with the pickles, cheese, and tomato. Toss together, and add the sauce. Eat and enjoy!
