Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C). Allow about 10-15 minutes for the grill to reach the right temperature.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika. Mix thoroughly and shape into four burger patties.
  3. Once the grill is hot, place the burger patties on the grates and grill for 4-5 minutes per side, or until desired doneness. Add a slice of cheddar cheese during the last minute.
  4. While the patties are grilling, prepare the salad base by mixing the salad greens, cherry tomatoes, red onion, avocado, and dill pickles in a large bowl.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, ketchup, olive oil, and lemon juice until smooth and creamy.
  6. Remove the patties from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes.
  7. To assemble, spoon the salad mixture into bowls, top each bowl with a grilled burger patty, and drizzle with the dressing.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy your Grilled Burger Bowls!
