Ingredients:
- 1 lb. ground beef or turkey
- 4 cups mixed salad greens (lettuce, spinach, arugula, etc.)
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

Instructions:
- In a large skillet, heat cooking oil over medium heat. Form the ground meat into burger patties and cook until they’re cooked through and have a nice sear on both sides. Season with salt and pepper.
- While the burgers are cooking, prepare the salad greens, cherry tomatoes, avocado slices, red onion, shredded cheese, and pickles.
- In a small bowl, mix together the sugar-free ketchup and mayonnaise to create a keto-friendly burger sauce.
- Once the burgers are done, assemble the power bowls: Start with a bed of salad greens, then arrange the burger patties, cherry tomatoes, avocado slices, red onion, shredded cheese, pickles, and any additional toppings.
- Drizzle the burger sauce over the ingredients or serve it on the side for dipping.
Note: Feel free to customize your power bowls by adding your favorite keto-friendly ingredients, such as grilled mushrooms, bell peppers, or crispy bacon.
