  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil
  • 4 cups romaine lettuce, iceberg lettuce, or mixed greens
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

  3. Cook, breaking apart with a spoon, until browned and fully cooked.
  4. Drain excess fat if needed and set aside.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, pickle relish, and vinegar or lemon juice until smooth.
  6. Wash and chop lettuce, slice tomatoes, pickles, and red onion.
