Bowls de hamburguesa completos (opción baja en FODMAP)

Ingredientes

• 6-8 slices low sodium bacon, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces
• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 tablespoon garlic-infused olive oil
• 1 tablespoon dried chives
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 6 cups green leaf lettuce, chopped
• 1 cup marble or cheddar cheese, lactose-free if needed, coarsely shredded (omit if needing dairy-free)
• 1/2 cup pickle slices (homemade or store-bought, low FODMAP if needed)
• 1/2 cup scallions, dark green parts only, chopped
• 1 batch homemade burger sauce

Preparación

1. 1

   At least 40 minutes prior to cooking but ideally the day before, prepare homemade pickles (if using them), cover, and refrigerate until ready to serve.

2. 2

   Prepare homemade burger sauce, cover, and refrigerate until ready to serve.

3. 3

   In a large skillet on medium heat on the stovetop, cook bacon until crisp, about 8 minutes. Once bacon is cooked, remove to a plate covered in a paper towel, leaving the bacon fat in the skillet. Cover to keep warm while you prepare the other ingredients.

4. 4

   Drain all but 1 tablespoon of bacon fat from the skillet. Return skillet to the stovetop on medium heat. Add ground beef, garlic-infused olive oil, chives, salt and pepper to the skillet, breaking up the meat with a spatula and stirring until meat is evenly coated in seasonings and oil. Brown ground beef until the moisture in the skillet is mostly gone, about 8 minutes. Remove to a medium serving bowl.

5. 5

   While beef is cooking, prepare remaining bowl ingredients, adding the chopped lettuce to a large bowl, and adding shredded cheese, chopped scallions, and cooked and chopped bacon to separate smaller serving bowls or storage containers if you anticipate leftovers. I like to keep all the components separate so that everyone can build their own burger bowls.

6. 6

   To build each bowl: add lettuce to the bottom of 4 bowls. Cover lettuce with 1/4 of the meat, cheese, bacon, pickles, and scallions. Drizzle with burger sauce and serve.
