- Ground beef: You can’t have a cheeseburger bowl without ground beef!
- Mayonnaise: The base of the burger sauce, mayo adds a rich and creamy texture to the dressing.
- Full Fat Greek Yogurt: Half mayo, half Greek yogurt keeps the sauce creamy but also adds a tangy flavor because of the Greek.
- Ketchup: Spicy and slightly sweet, ketchup is a key ingredient in our burger sauces.
- Pickles: The pickles and pickle juice add some spiciness and crunch to the sauce.
- Napa Cabbage: We love this cabbage in burger bowls because it has a mild, slightly sweet flavor and a very crunchy texture.
- Apple Cider Vinegar: We pickle cabbage in apple cider vinegar to make it even tastier.
- Cherry Tomatoes: Tomatoes and burgers go well together, so of course, we had to add some juicy cherry tomatoes to the bowl.
- cheddar cheese: A classic cheeseburger isn’t complete without yellow cheddar!
