INGREDIENTS:

For the Salad:

• ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
• Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
• 4 cups chopped romaine lettuce
• 4 dill pickle spears, chopped
• 1/2 small red onion, sliced into rings
• 4 ounce avocado, cubed (from 1 small haas)
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

For the Dressing:

• 1/4 cup light mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon mustard
• 1 teaspoon dill pickle juice
• 4 teaspoons ketchup
• 1/4 teaspoon onion powder

DIRECTIONS:

1. In a large bowl, combine beef, salt and pepper. With wet hand, gently form into 4 equal patties. Set aside.
2. In another large bowl, whisk together dressing ingredients. Set aside.
3. Cook hamburger patties on a grill to medium doneness, around 4-5 minutes per side. After flipping the patties, add the onion rings to the grill. Cook onion for the remaining 4-5 minutes, flipping halfway through. Allow patties to rest for 5-10 minutes then cut each patty into 16 bite-size pieces.
