I love this recipe as well, it does feel like a cheat, i try not to do it too often, but only bc my stomach isnt a huge fan of red meat! but it is so delicious! My roommate is constantly trying to steal some of it off my plate, actually she loves alot of the foods i eat, and she is not on the diet. She had me buy some bars for her bc she loved them so much! :-D
I am soooo trying this recipie. The WF Thousand Island dressing is the only dressing of theirs that I have tried and didn't like. ( I have tried Itialian, Ranch, Ranch Calorie free, Balsamic, Creamy Bacon) I look forward to trying it this way. Is the Veggie Cheese ok during Phase I? I love big macs. I love ground beef.
I LOVE my Big Mac in a Bowl!!!! Lately, I totally prefer using turkey burgers instead of beef. (Yuck JennyO brand....there are way better turkey burgers than those terrible things!)
Enjoy. And....as I have been told a gazillion times by the most experienced, eating lean protein, like shrimp and fish, every night, does not help with the weight loss!!!! I am finally getting this!!! I like my lean turkey burgers, 9g of fat, with 20 grams of protein each!!!!!!!!

What turkey burgers do you like? Does anyone know any acceptable veggie burgers? Also, is there a verdict on veggie cheese in phase 1? Thanks!
You can also cut your ground beef amounts by using 1/2 ground beef (or ground chicken/turkey) and 1/2 diced portabello mushrooms ... really reduces the calories AND it adds yummy flavor. I do this with burgers and meatloaf :O)

Oh, that's a great idea! Thanks, I'm going to try it.
I love the Big Mac Bowl, my DH requests it and he is not on IP. I add a little dijon mustard to mine. This is a great meal when we are camping because I can have everything prepared ahead of time and then just reheat the ground beef and mix everything together. Instead of having over just lettuce I will throw in some spinach and that helps me get in my 4 cups of veggies.
I made this last night for dinner and it was great! My husband and my 6 year old son were looking longingly at my plate (I shared some with the 6 year old). Next time I will have to make enough for everyone. I finally found a use for that WF Thousand Island dressing. I don't know how many times I almost threw that dressing away becasuse it's taking up space in the fridge. Good thing I didn't. I also added a little bit of mustard to cut the taste of the WF. Next time I will either try ground turkey or mix the beef and turkey. Thanks for the suggestion.
No I made it like a salad. I put it on a plate not in a bowl. Put the pickles and onions around the top of the lettuce, then I sprinkeled the ground beef on top. I drizzled the 1000 island and mustard on top of that and then I enjoyed it!
