Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 2 tablespoons Avocado oil
- 8 pieces large lettuce leaves
- 1 medium tomato, sliced
- 0.5 medium red onion, thinly sliced
- 0.25 cup pickle slices
- 0.25 cup Whole30-approved mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Gently mix until the seasonings are evenly distributed.
Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into patties, about half an inch thick.
Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the skillet is hot, add the burger patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked to your desired level of doneness.
While the burgers are cooking, prepare the toppings. Lay out the lettuce leaves to act as buns.
Place a cooked burger patty on each of the four lettuce leaves.
Top each burger with tomato slices, red onion slices, and pickle slices.
Mix the Whole30-approved mayonnaise and Dijon mustard in a small bowl, then spread a tablespoon of the mixture on each burger.
Finish by topping each with another lettuce leaf, and wrap tightly.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Whole30 lettuce-wrapped burger.
