It's a cheeseburger that's good for you because it's a salad!
I mean, salad is ok, but it's not very filling. Cheeseburgers are good, but they're not very healthy. What's a person to do?! The answer, once considered, is obvious. Marry the best of both worlds with this ultimate cheeseburger salad - the best thing to happen to salad since croutons and Baco-s* bacon bits.
This recipe came about as a result of creating the Hamburger guide. I was joking with Randofo about what I could contribute to it, and decided on a cheeseburger salad. Not a salad with cheese and hamburger, a la taco salad, but a salad with tiny islands of crouton-like cheeeburgers.
I did not know Rachel Ray had done it first. She is obviously a genius, and I'm pleased that we have the same ideas about food. But there's nothing as frustrating as finding out your idea was scooped. . . two years before you thought of it.
My recipe was only slightly different, but this is my Instructable, so you're getting that one, and I hope you enjoy the technique pictures that Rachel Ray obviously does not love you enough to provide.
*Bacon bits would take this salad to the extreme, and I can't believe I didn't think about it until now. Bacon Cheeseburger Salad, please. Yes, thank you.

Pretty much you want to make your favorite hamburger recipe, add your favorite cheese, and then make up your favorite salad. A mustard vinaigrette far outshines a ketchup one, trust me. Honey mustard is my preference.
My favorite cheeseburgers are made with:
My salad consisted of:
I looked up a mustard vinaigrette which went a little something like this:
My favorite cheeseburgers are made with:
- 1 lb minced beef
- 1/2 small chopped onion
- Worcestershire or steak sauce to taste
- Steak seasoning (or salt & pepper) to taste + a dash (I always like more than I think I will)

- 1 lb beef
- 1/2 packet onion soup mix (yum!!)
My salad consisted of:
- Chopped Romaine lettuce
- Tiny tomatoes

- Pickles, cause I love burgers with pickles!
I looked up a mustard vinaigrette which went a little something like this:
- 1/4 cup mustard (I prefer honey mustard)
- 3T vinegar - I used apple cider for its mellow sweetness, but balsamic would be a good choice too
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- Salt and pepper

Rreminds me of that errant cheeseburger that always breaks apart on my grill when bbq'ing, then forced to eat before anyone notices.
