GREEN CHILE CHEESEBURGER SALAD TOPPED WITH HOMEMADE FRIES: It's My Favorite Burger in Salad Form

I LOVE green chile cheeseburgers, but did you know you can forgo the bun and make thee most delicious Green Chile Cheeseburger Salad. I even top it off with Homemade French Fries that are baked and not deep fried. So you can enjoy them without the guilt. Even the dressing tastes just like your favorite burger sauce. As far as salads go, it's not the healthiest, but it is definitely better for you than that fast food burger and fries, and you don't sacrifice the flavor. Read on for how I make this. A written recipe can be found on my website at https://www.marcyinspired.com

Dressing

1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup ketchup
2 tsp. mustard
4 Tbsp. diced dill pickles, plus a little pickle juice (approx. 2 tsp.)
salt & pepper to taste

Place all ingredients in a small bowl and whisk together until left with a consistent sauce. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.


Baked French Fries

3 Yukon gold potatoes
avocado oil in spray can
salt & pepper to taste
garlic salt to taste
New Mexico red chile powder to taste

Wash & dry potatoes thoroughly before cutting them lengthwise into fries. I like to leave the skin on, but you can peel them if you prefer. Place cut potatoes into large bowl and cover with cold water. Let them soak a minimum of 30 minutes. This will help reduce the starch and make for a crispier french fry.
Once potatoes have soaked, preheat oven to 475º
Remove potatoes from water and place on clean kitchen towel to dry.
Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper. Spray with avocado oil. Place fries in an even layer across the cookie sheet, trying not to overlap any of them. Spray fries with avocado oil. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, garlic salt, and chile powder. Then bake for 30 minutes. Serve and enjoy immediately.


Green Chile Cheeseburger Fries

1 lb. lean ground beef
3/4 cup Hatch green chile, roasted, peeled, and chopped
salt & pepper to taste

romaine lettuce, cut in bite size pieces
tomatoes, diced
red oinion, chopped

*Keep in mind you can make this to your liking. Use whatever ingredients you like in your burger.

Heat a large skillet on the stovetop over medium high heat. Drizzle a couple of tsp. of oil in it. Then brown ground beef, breaking it up as it cooks, but being careful not to break it down completely. Add in green chile and salt and pepper to taste. Remove from burner once fully cooked.

Make salad using bed of lettuce, tomatoes, onion, shredded cheese, bacon bits etc. Top with cooked ground beef and homemade french fries. Drizzle dressing on top and enjoy!
