Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef (85% lean)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 4 slices Dairy-free cheddar cheese slices
- 4 whole Burger buns
- 4 leaves Lettuce leaves
- 1 large, sliced Tomato
- 0.5 medium, sliced Red onion
- 8 slices Pickles
- 0.25 cup Ketchup
- 0.25 cup Mustard
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Step 2
Divide the seasoned meat into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, roughly 3/4 inch thick. Use your thumb to make a shallow indentation in the center of each patty to prevent them from puffing up during cooking.
Step 3
Preheat a grill or stovetop griddle over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates.
Step 4
Place the burger patties on the preheated grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side for medium doneness, or until your desired doneness is achieved. In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of dairy-free cheddar cheese on each patty and cover to allow the cheese to melt.
Step 5
While the burgers are cooking, slice the tomato and red onion and set aside.
Step 6
Lightly toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster oven.
Step 7
To assemble the burgers, spread a tablespoon of ketchup and mustard on the top and bottom buns. Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half, followed by a cooked patty with melted cheese, a slice of tomato, a few rings of red onion, and two slices of pickles. Top with the other half of the bun.
Step 8
Serve the dairy-free burgers immediately, alongside your favorite side dishes like fries or a salad.
