Cheeseburger Rice
This one started as a dumb idea and ended up being a weekly thing. Ground beef cooked down with onion, ketchup and mustard caramelized right into the meat, American cheese melted on top while the lid traps the steam, cold shredded lettuce and pickles piled on at the end. It tastes exactly like a Big Mac bowl and we're not apologizing for that.

Instructions
- 01
Cook ground beef in a skillet over high heat, breaking it into small crumbles. Season with garlic powder and Worcestershire sauce. Get some real color on it — don't steam it. Drain excess fat but leave a little.
- 02
Add diced onion to the beef and cook 3 minutes. Add ketchup and yellow mustard directly to the pan and let it caramelize slightly into the meat for 1 minute.
- 03
Add 2 cups cooked (Not So) Boring White Rice and toss everything together over medium heat. Lay American cheese slices directly on top, put a lid on, and let it melt for 1 minute 30 seconds.
- 04
Scoop into a bowl. Top with cold shredded iceberg lettuce, chopped dill pickle, a squirt of extra mustard and ketchup, and finish with sesame seeds. Cold lettuce on hot cheesy rice is the contrast that makes it.
