No reviews

A healthy twist on traditional burgers, using crisp lettuce leaves instead of buns for a lower-carb meal option.

  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450g) ground beef
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Iceberg lettuce leaves (or any lettuce of your choice)
  • Burger toppings of your choice (e.g., tomato slices, onion slices, pickles, cheese slices, avocado slices)

Instructions

  1. Season the ground beef with salt and pepper to taste. Divide the seasoned beef into equal portions and shape them into burger patties.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the burger patties for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
  3. Wash and pat dry the lettuce leaves, then use them as wraps for your burgers. Place a cooked burger patty on each lettuce leaf.
  4. Add your favorite burger toppings on top of the burger patties.
  5. Carefully fold the lettuce leaves around the burger patties and toppings to form lettuce wraps. Secure the wraps with toothpicks if needed, then serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

Make sure to use sturdy lettuce like iceberg or romaine to hold the fillings better. Get creative with your toppings for variety.
