INGREDIENTS

7.5 oz ground beef

0 whole whole wheat bun

0 tsp avocado oil

2 cup mixed greens

0.5 cup cucumber

1 tbsp lemon juice

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp garlic powder

0.25 tsp onion powder

PREPARATION

• 1

  In a small bowl, mix the sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder until well combined.

• 2

  Season the ground beef with the spice mixture and gently form it into one large, uniform patty about 1-inch thick.

• 3

  Heat the avocado oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering and hot.

• 4

  Place the beef patty in the skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes per side until a deep golden crust forms and the center reaches your desired doneness.

• 5

  While the beef is searing, lightly toast the whole wheat bun in a toaster or a separate dry pan until the edges are golden brown.

• 6

  In a medium mixing bowl, toss the mixed greens and cucumber with the fresh lemon juice until the leaves are lightly coated.

• 7

  Place the crispy beef patty onto the bottom half of the toasted bun, top with the other half, and serve immediately with the zesty garden salad on the side.
