In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until well combined, but do not overwork the meat.
Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal portions and gently shape each into a patty, making a slight indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb to ensure even cooking.
Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, place the beef patties in the pan. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
During the last minute of cooking, add a dairy-free cheddar cheese slice on top of each patty, cover the pan with a lid, and allow the cheese to melt slightly.
Remove the patties from the heat and let them rest for a couple of minutes.
Meanwhile, slice the tomato and onion into thin rounds.
Toast the hamburger buns in a toaster or on a dry skillet until they are lightly browned.
Assemble the cheeseburgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by the burger patty with melted cheese, tomato slices, onion slices, and pickle slices.
Spread 1 tablespoon of ketchup and 1/2 tablespoon of mustard on the top half of the buns.
Place the top bun over the assembled ingredients and serve immediately.
