Why is it when a restaurant offers a lettuce bun I cringe, but when I make a burger bowl I’m delighted? The mysteries of being gluten free, but if you enjoy a good burger bowl this simple recipe will definitely check all the boxes! Enjoy!

Ingredients

• 8 cups chopped lettuce
• 4 burger patties (make your own, or purchase)
• 8 slices bacon
• Burger toppings of choice : pickles, tomato, hot peppers, onion, avocado, cheese 
• Honey dijon sauce (see tips)

Directions

1. Grill burger patties.
2. Cook bacon.
3. While meat is cooking, prepare your bowl. Add lettuce and desired burger toppings to the bowl.
4. Add cooked burger and bacon on top
5. Top it all with honey dijon sauce

Tips

• Make your own honey dijon by combining 2 parts honey to 1 part dijon
• Making your own burger patties is generally cheaper, but purchasing can definitely be more convenient. Be sure to check ingredients to make sure there is no added gluten. I use Presidents Choice Free From frozen patties. They are gluten free with no questionable ingredients and always turn out well. 
• Save time by cooking your bacon in advance, or having it cooking while you are preparing the other ingredients
• Feel like you’re missing the burger bun carbs? Try serving with a slice of garlic toast or top with croutons.
