Fully Loaded Burger Bowls
Summertime, as we all know, is burger time. There’s nothing quite like a nice, juicy burger, hot off the grill, with all your favorite fixings – bacon, cheese, and some nice fried mushrooms.
Of course, a traditional burger also comes with one other thing: the bun. And for anyone who’s trying to steer clear of carbs, that kind of ruins the whole meal.
So for all you carb-avoiders, I’ve come up with a whole new way to enjoy burgers without the bun. Instead, you serve all the toppings in – the burger itself!

Instead of forming the beef into patties, you shape it into a little bowl and load it up with cheese, mushrooms, and bacon. Then put those filled bowls on a baking pan and bake them under a foil tent for half an hour, so all the juices from the meat blend together with those tasty toppings. You can top these with barbecue sauce, ranch dressing, diced chives, or all three.
Here’s another plus: you don’t need to wait for nice weather so you can fire up the grill. These Fully Loaded Burger Bowls are good rain or shine!

Make sure to share it with me below!
Do you put a tin foil tent over each bowl or over the whole pan covering all 4?
One over the whole pan works. You just don’t want the foil touching the cheese, or it might come off 🙂
Excellant idea ! !
What can you use instead of mushrooms
Anything you usually love on a burger! Caramelized onions, extra cheese, olives, more bacon! haha. Feel free to stuff it with anything you think would be good 🙂
When we made stuffed burgers before we used frozen hash brown potatoes sauteed with onion and jalepeno, or freshed chopped potatoes with bell peppers and onions.. and yes in all variations I add bacon lol. Not low carb like I’m doing now but i love mushrooms and this recipe looks good such a good idea, I’ll probably have mine over shredded lettuce and stuff to make it more filling. Thanks for the recipe.
This sounds amazing!!!!
Do you know the carb count for each burger?
I just added the nutrition label in the recipe. There are approximately 4 grams, depending on your toppings.
