Deconstructed Cheeseburger Bowls

About This Recipe

A meal prep version of the American classic.  Ground beef, potato wedges, and burger toppings come together in a bowl that reheats well in the microwave.

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs ground beef (85/15)
  • 5 Tbsp shredded cheese
  • 9 oz shredded Brussels sprouts
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 10 Tbsp BBQ sauce (Vinegar based)
  • 5 dill pickle spears
  • 2 Roma tomatoes
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 5 small russet potatoes
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F.
  2. Wash each of your potatoes thoroughly.  Cut each of them in half long ways 3 times so you have 8 wedges for each potato.
  3. In a large bowl, drizzle 1 Tbsp of olive oil over the potatoes.  Sprinkle with 1 tsp of salt and pepper. Toss the potatoes to coat and spread onto a sheet pan.
  4. Bake for 10 minutes and then flip them to the other side and cook an additional 10-12 minutes or until desired doneness is achieved.
  5. Heat a skillet over medium high heat. Add the ground beef and cook. Once it has browned, season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Heat 1 Tbsp of olive oil over medium high heat. Add in the shaved Brussels sprouts and cook for 2-3 minutes. They will cook fast. Season with 1 tsp garlic powder and salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Cut 2 Roma tomatoes into slices.
  8. This recipe makes 5 servings. Divide your hamburger, potatoes, and Brussels sprouts evenly between your 5 containers. Top the hamburger with 1 Tbsp of shredded cheese. Add 1 pickle spear and slices of Roma tomatoes. Store 2 Tbsp of BBQ sauce in a separate container.
