In a small bowl, whisk together the nonfat Greek yogurt, yellow mustard, pickle juice, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Finely dice the red onion and slice the dill pickles into small rounds.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the raw ground beef.
Season the beef with sea salt and black pepper, breaking it into small crumbles with a spatula as it cooks for 6-8 minutes until fully browned.
Drain any excess fat from the skillet and remove from heat.
Place the shredded raw romaine lettuce into a large serving bowl as the base.
Top the lettuce with the warm cooked beef, diced onions, pickles, and shredded cheddar cheese.
Drizzle the prepared special sauce over the bowl and garnish with sesame seeds before serving.
