Preparation
- Serving size:9.80 oz (calculated)Notes: 2 cups
- Finely chop the dill pickles and onion.
- Mix together with the remaining ingredients and set aside as you work on the salad.
- In a large pan over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef, about 5 minutes. Use lean ground beef to avoid a greasy salad.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- As the meat is browning, chop or shred the lettuce, slice the onions and pickles and shred the cheese.
- Mix together the lettuce, onion, pickles and cheese.
- Evenly divide the salad, top with a portion of meat (about 5/8 cup or 3 1/2 oz or 100 g) and drizzle with the dressing (about 1/4 cup or 2 oz or 60 g).
- If serving straight away, you can also toss the salad in half the dressing, top the dressed salad with the meat and drizzle with the remaining sauce.
- Enjoy!
- You can prepare the dressing, meat and salad ingredients in advance and store them separately in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Put together the salad just before serving. Optionally reheat the meat before adding it to the salad - but it tastes great as is, too.
- For a meal on the go, you can also make a mason jar salad: start by layering the lettuce, then the cheese, beef, onions, pickles and finally the dressing. Shake before enjoying or tip in a bowl to toss.
