Servings 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground turkey or lean ground beef
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 cups mixed greens arugula, spinach, or lettuce
- 1 avocado sliced
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
- ½ red onion thinly sliced
- ¼ cup pickles chopped
- ¼ cup crumbled feta or dairy-free cheese optional
For the Sauce:
- ¼ cup Greek yogurt or dairy-free alternative
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon ketchup low-sugar if possible
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup optional
Instructions
- Cook the Burger Patties: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey or beef, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Form the mixture into 4 burger patties.
- Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat olive or avocado oil over medium heat. Add the patties and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, or until fully cooked through and browned on the outside.
- Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, ketchup, apple cider vinegar, honey (if using), salt, and pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste and set aside.
- Assemble the Bowls: In 4 individual bowls, divide the mixed greens. Top each bowl with a cooked burger patty, avocado slices, cherry tomatoes, red onion, pickles, shredded carrots, and cheese (if using).
- Drizzle the Sauce: Spoon the yogurt-mustard sauce over each burger bowl and serve immediately.
Notes
- Swap ground turkey or beef with chicken or even a plant-based alternative for a lighter or vegetarian option.
- If you want extra carbs, add quinoa, brown rice, or sweet potato to your bowl for a more filling meal.
- For a different flavor, try a tahini dressing, spicy mayo, or a balsamic vinaigrette in place of the yogurt-mustard sauce.
- Cook the burger patties in advance and store them in the fridge for easy assembly throughout the week.
- Omit the cheese and use a dairy-free yogurt for the sauce to make the dish completely dairy-free and still delicious!
