Skinny Cheeseburger Salad

¾ cup reduced-fat cheddar cheese

3 cups tomatoes, chopped

Instructions

1. Prepare the Skinny Thousand Island dressing and refrigerate. It can be made several days in advance. Or use a store-bought light Thousand Island or Ranch dressing.

2. To make burger crumble: In a large, nonstick pan add ground beef and onions. Brown over medium-high heat, about 5 minutes. Stir often, breaking up beef, into a crumble. Once browned, pour into a colander in the sink to drain any fat.

3. Add browned beef back to the pan. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, seasoning salt, and pepper. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir often.

4. To make one salad: Line a dinner plate with 4 cups lettuce. Top lettuce with ½ cup warm burger crumble. Sprinkle with ½ cup tomatoes (drained). Drizzle 2 tablespoons Thousand Island dressing over salad. Top with 2 tablespoons cheese.

5. You don’t have to make all 6 salads at once. Pack the burger crumble in individual containers and freeze for more salads in the future.

Makes 6 main course salads. Each serving 1 salad

Shopping Tips
Most supermarkets sell extra lean ground beef. I used the 96% lean ground beef from Trader Joe’s.
