The Big Mac salad 🍔

Protein: 32–36 grams

Fiber: 3–4 grams

This salad contains deconstructed burger ingredients—ground beef, lettuce, cheese, onions, and pickles—topped with a homemade special sauce. And, it's perfect for Shelf-tember because I had EVERYTHING on hand.

Salad Base and Toppings:

Lettuce: Chopped iceberg or romaine lettuce provides the crisp, crunchy base.
Ground Beef: Cooked and seasoned ground beef (often with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and a dash of Worcestershire sauce) acts as the warm or cooled meat layer.
Cheese: Freshly shredded cheddar or Colby Jack cheese adds a creamy, sharp flavor.
Onion: Finely diced or thinly sliced white or red onion gives it a classic sharp bite.
Pickles: Chopped dill pickles or dill pickle chips bring the tangy flavor.
Extras: Optional additions include chopped tomatoes and a garnish of toasted sesame seeds to mimic the iconic bun.

Special Sauce Dressing

Base: Mayonnaise forms the creamy foundation.
Tang and Flavor: Sweet pickle relish (or minced pickles), yellow mustard, and a splash of white vinegar or pickle juice.
Color and Spices: A touch of ketchup or French dressing, along with paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
