Gluten-Free All-American Hamburgers

Ingredients:

1 pound ground beef (80% lean)
Salt and pepper to taste
4 gluten-free hamburger buns
4 slices cheddar cheese
Lettuce leaves
Sliced tomatoes
Sliced red onion
Ketchup and mustard
Pickles (optional)

Instructions:

Preheat your grill or stovetop griddle over medium-high heat.

Divide the ground beef into 4 equal portions and shape them into burger patties, slightly larger than the diameter of your hamburger buns.

Season both sides of the patties with salt and pepper.

Place the patties on the hot grill or griddle and cook for about 3-4 minutes on the first side. Flip the patties and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes on the other side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.

In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty to melt.

While the burgers are cooking, toast the gluten-free hamburger buns on the grill or in a toaster.

Assemble the burgers by placing lettuce leaves on the bottom bun, followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese.

Add sliced tomatoes and red onion on top of the patty.

Squeeze ketchup and mustard over the vegetables.

If desired, add pickles for extra flavor.

Top the burger with the other half of the toasted gluten-free bun.
