“Saladfy” means to take a sandwich or burger and remake it into a salad. Anyone ever heard of this before? No? Okay, then. Let me explain. Chicken Cobb Salad is basically a chicken club with eggs, isn’t it? Antipasto salad seems a lot like an Italian sub to me, how about you? So why not take a cheeseburger and make it a salad? Makes perfect sense, right? The best part about this salad is the pickles and the homemade dressing.
So, here’s how this goes:
- Prep your Bibb lettuce (or any crisp lettuce), thinly sliced white onions, tomatoes (sliced) and kosher dill hamburger pickles.
- Make the dressing.
- Grill or broil your patties and then add cheese, and cut patties into bite sized cubes.
- Put it all together
The things:
- Grill, oven or stove top to make the patties.
- A whisk. Or use the immersion blender (my preferred way) to make the dressing.
