burger salad

I probably eat this for lunch more than anything else. I mean, it's basically your favorite juicy burger with all of your favorite burger toppings (cheese, dill pickles, pickled onion, special sauce, avocado, bacon, ketchup…) plopped on top of a bed of sweet bibb lettuce. I just cut the whole thing up and eat it like a salad, because who can really manage to wrap a hot burger with lettuce to mimic a bun anyway? Not me. Just give me a cheeseburger salad!
