Big Mac Salad Recipe
Ingredients:
Beef

1 lb ground beef
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
3/4 tsp salt

Sauce

1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tbsp minced onion
2 tbsp ketchup
2 tbsp relish
1 tsp white vinegar
1 tsp horseradish
4 drops hot sauce
1/4 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp kosher salt
2 pieces White Bread I used Promise Gluten-Free Bread
1 tbsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper

Salad 

1 head iceberg lettuce
1 batch "burger" meat"
1 batch Big Mac Dressing
2 sliced garlic dill pickles
1/4 cup minced onions
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
1 batch croutons
4 tsp sesame seeds

Directions:
"Burger" Meat

In a medium bowl, combine the ground beef, onion and garlic powder, and salt. Mix well.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned using a wooden spoon to break the meat into small pieces.
Drain the fat off the meat and serve.

Big Mac Dressing

In a medium bowl, combine all the ingredients and mix well.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and put the dressing in the fridge for 30 minutes before serving.
Croutons
Drizzle the bread with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Toast the bread in a 400°f oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until crisp. Let the bread cool on a rack then cut into small cubes and serve.


Big Mac Salad

Cut the lettuce into bite-sized pieces. Wash and dry it.
Divide the lettuce between four salad bowls.
Divide the "Burger" meat among the four bowls putting it on top of the lettuce.
Top the "Burger" meat with the Big Mac Dressing.
Finish dressing the salad with the pickles, onion, cheese, and croutons. Garnish with sesame seeds and serve.
