Equipment

  • 1 pan
  • 1 meat smasher
  • 1 knife
  • 1 cutting board
  • 1 Measuring Spoons
  • 1 Measuring Cups

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lb ground beef
  • 1 bag Monterey jack shredded cheese or whatever cheese you like
  • 1 onion
  • hash browns (frozen or box)

"Big Mac Sauce"

  • ketchup
  • mayo
  • mustard
  • pickles

Seasonings

  • Kinders Butchers Burger Blend
  • Kinders The Blend
  • McCormick Sweet Onion Bacon

Instructions
 

  • Brown the ground beef in a pan and season it with your preferred seasonings. I have experimented with different seasonings, and the ones I like best for this are Kinder's Butcher's Burger Blend, The Blend, & McCormick Sweet Onion Bacon. There are no measurements here because I just sprinkle it on quite generously. (except for the blend (salt, pepper, and garlic). I add that one a little at a time to taste. I keep adding seasonings and stirring until the dish tastes seasoned enough for me. :)
  • In a separate pan, grill your onions in a bit of butter or olive oil or spray avo oil. Set aside. (If you don't like grilled onions, you can do raw or not include them in your bowl.
  • Prepare your hashbrowns per directions. Frozen or box. These will be your base. Think "french fries"

Sauce

  • Chop up the pickles very tiny. (or use relish)
  • Could you make sure to stir your ketchup, mayo, mustard, and pickles in a bowl and set aside.

Build Your Bowl

  • Layer your bowls in this order: hash browns, ground beef, cheese, grilled onions, sauce.
  • You can add whatever else you like to your bowl. Some crumbled bacon, more pickles, a fried egg - the possibilities are really endless with this.

Notes

Think of this as a recipe formula.  You start with your base (hash browns & ground beef), and you add in all of your favorite toppings.  Cheese, bacon, onion, sauce, pickles, fried egg, onion ring —whatever you want on your burger —can be placed in this bowl.  Get creative and make it yours.  Its an easy weeknight dinner and this is a great meal prep meal as well.
