School is out for summer, and burger season is upon us! For years, we made burger salads instead of burgers because it is impossible to find low-glutamate burger buns. However, this sauce helps amplify your boring cheese-free burger salad and is also great on regular burgers (gluten-free or not) and even as a dip for your fries. I hope you like this as much as we do!
Ingredients
1/2 c. Mayonnaise (homemade or Better, Not Perfect, cleaner store-bought)
3 tbsp Ketchup (Better, Not Perfect, cleaner ketchup)
1 tsp Brown Mustard (Our FAVORITE)
1 tsp Apple Cider Vinegar (Our Favorite)
4 tbsp Chopped Dill Pickles (Better, Not Perfect, cleaner pickles)
2 Chopped Garlic Cloves
1/2 tsp Onion Granules (Our Favorite)
1/4 tsp Sea or Himalayan Salt
Juice from 1/2 a Lemon
Instructions
Place all ingredients in a small bowl and stir until well combined. Drizzle over burger salad or burger, or use a dip for your fries.
Burger Salad Inspiration
We like to assemble a salad of finely diced fresh greens, tomato, onion, pickles, avocado, ground meat (remember it is easy to hide greens, vegetables, or liver into your burgers), and whatever else I have around the house. My husband also likes cheddar or blue cheese crumbles on his. Drizzle the burger sauce over the salad as a dressing.
This salad goes well served with grilled veggies, root vegetable fries (potato, sweet potato, parsnip, etc.), and fresh fruit or potato salad.
