Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup pickles, chopped
  • 4 cups lettuce, chopped
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp mustard
  • 1 tbsp ketchup
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat, add ground beef, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned, about 6‑8 minutes. Drain excess fat if desired.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, mustard, and ketchup to create the tangy sauce.
  3. Divide chopped lettuce into four bowls. Top each with cooked beef, shredded cheddar, chopped pickles, and drizzle with sauce. Serve immediately.
