- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 large Avocado
- 1 large Tomato
- 1 cup Mixed salad greens
- 0.5 small Red onion
- 4 tablespoons Gluten-free mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice

Instructions
Slice the halloumi cheese into 8 thick slices.
Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat and brush with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Grill the halloumi slices for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and slightly crispy.
While the halloumi is grilling, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh into a small bowl. Mash with a fork until smooth.
Add the lemon juice to the mashed avocado and mix well. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Slice the tomato and red onion thinly and set aside.
Slice the gluten-free burger buns in half and brush the cut sides with the remaining olive oil. Toast them on the grill pan for 1-2 minutes until slightly crispy.
To assemble, spread a tablespoon of gluten-free mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun.
Layer the mixed salad greens, 2 slices of grilled halloumi, slices of tomato and red onion on each bun.
Top with a generous spoonful of avocado mash.
Finish by placing the top bun over the assembled ingredients.
Serve immediately and enjoy your gluten-free grilled halloumi burger.
