Big Mac in a Bowl!

I have been reading on one of the boards that I frequent for sometime now a recipe for something called "Big Mac in a Bowl". I finally decided it was time to try this thing out. OMFG!!! It was so good that I must share.

1/4 lb of Lean Ground Beef
1 Slice American Cheese
1/2 Bag of Shredded Lettuce
1 Slice Onion, diced
1 Slice Tomato, diced (I know not in a Big Mac but I like Tomato)
4 Dill Pickle Slices
2 Tbsp Thousand Island Dressing

Brown the beef with Salt, Pepper, Onion Powder, Garlic Powder. I left it in pretty chunky bits then drained the grease. Add the cheese and melt together.

Rinse the lettuce and put in a bowl with Onion, Tomato and Pickles. Top with beef and the thousand island dressing.

It had all of the goodness of a BigMac without the bread. Not sure what the nutritional data is yet. I will have to check add it all up later.

Loaded it into Fitday with the following stats.

Just a note, the recipe says 1/2lb but the fitday link says 1/4lb

Thanks, the recipe should have been a 1/4 pound. Fixed it.
