Instructions

Step 1

If you need to cook the bacon first, place the strips in a medium, cold skillet. Turn on to medium heat and cook for 5 -10 minutes, flipping once, until your desired crispiness. Transfer the strips to a paper towel-lined plate. Set aside.

Step 2

Drain off the bacon grease until about 1 tablespoon remains in the pan. If you haven't cooked the bacon in the pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onions and sprinkle with ⅛ tsp salt. Stir to separate onion slices. Cover with a lid and cook for 5 minutes, stirring once and replacing lid. The salt and steam "sweats" the onions to soften them.

Step 3

Remove the lid and reduce heat to medium low. Continue to cook and stir intermittently for 5 minutes more, or until they are browned and caramelized. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Step 4

In the same pan increase the heat to medium-high heat. Brown the ground beef, breaking up with a spoon. To the beef add the Worcestershire, garlic powder, onion powder, and ¼ tsp salt. Cook until no longer pink. Drain off grease.

Step 5

Turn off the heat and stir in the 1 cup cheddar cheese. Set aside while assembling the salad bowls and preparing the burger sauce.

Step 6

Divide the lettuce, tomatoes, avocado, crumbled bacon, and additional cheese between 4 serving bowls.

Step 7

For the burger sauce, combine all the ingredients in a small bowl. Divide the burger mixture between the bowls and drizzle with burger sauce.
