Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 large ripe avocado
- 1 medium lime
- 8 pieces romaine lettuce leaves
- 1 medium tomato
- 0.5 medium red onion
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until the seasoning is evenly distributed throughout the beef.
Step 2
Divide the beef mixture into 8 equal portions and shape them into mini patties, about 2 to 3 inches in diameter.
Step 3
Heat 2 tablespoons of coconut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 4
Once hot, add the beef patties to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until they are browned on the outside and cooked through to your liking on the inside.
Step 5
While the burgers are cooking, prepare the toppings. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a small bowl. Mash the avocado with the juice of half a lime and a pinch of salt.
Step 6
Slice the tomato and red onion into thin slices and set aside.
Step 7
Once the burgers are cooked, remove them from the skillet and let them rest on a plate for a few minutes.
Step 8
To assemble, place a lettuce leaf on a plate, top with a mini beef burger, a dollop of mashed avocado, slices of tomato, and onion. Cover with another lettuce leaf to form a mini burger.
Step 9
Serve immediately. Enjoy your Whole30 Mini Beef Burgers!
