Ingredients
- 0.5 pounds ground beef
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 cup, chopped onion
- 1 cup, shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 leaves butter lettuce leaves

Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chopped onion to the skillet and sauté for about 3 minutes, or until translucent.
Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
Season the beef with salt and black pepper, mixing well.
Reduce the heat to low and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the beef and onions. Stir until the cheese melts and is well combined with the beef.
While the beef cooks, gently toast the keto-friendly buns in a separate skillet or toaster until golden brown.
Assemble the sandwiches by layering each bun with 4 butter lettuce leaves, half of the beef mixture, 2 dill pickle slices, and a few slices of tomato.
Serve the Keto Chopped Cheese Sandwich immediately, enjoying the combination of melted cheese, savory beef, and fresh toppings.
