Hamburger Salad: Made 2 Ways Recipe

Hamburger Salad: Made 2 Ways Recipe

April 16, 2019 · In: More Recipes, Main Dish

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of McCain Foods. The opinions and text are all mine. #MyMcCainPotatoes #CollectiveBias

With spring finally here, all I can think about is how we are even closer to the summer. Warmer weather also means time for getting together with family and friends for grilling out and watching whatever sports events that are on the schedule! Hamburgers and french fries have always been on our menu when it comes to these type of gatherings.

Hamburger Salad: Made 2 Ways Recipe

A twist to the typical hamburger menu item.

Time for a twist on the basic hamburger menu item, especially for those who are on a healthier diet kick. I bring to everyone a hamburger salad made 2 different ways with McCain® potato products ! One way is without all the added toppings and spicy dressing, but with a topping of McCain® Smiles® Mashed Potato Fries and Extra Crispy Crinkle Fries. The perfect salad for all those younger children. The second way is for those who love that extra spiciness, topped with a spicy salad dressing and a shredded pepper jack cheese. Can’t forget to mention the McCain® Seasoned Curly Fries that add that crispy bite to this delicious hamburger salad.

Don’t have to be a salad lover.

You don’t have to love salads to enjoy this recipe. I look at this recipe made 2 ways as basically a deconstructed hamburger with the lettuce, tomato, onion, cheese and of course those McCain® Smile, Curly, and Extra Crunchy Fries. You could even add dill pickles! Did you know that you can grab all the ingredients at Walmart? Yep, even the McCain® potato products can be easily picked up in the freezer section at Walmart. I would say that is a win when you are planning a get together! McCain® is a multi-national frozen potato products company established in Canada, but making itself a house hold name in the USA. They are obviously great products for dipping and layering!

Until 5/31/19, you can get $1.50 off when you purchase 2 participating McCain products at Walmart. You can submit your rebate & learn more details here !

Get to planning a sports game get together with this recipe.

Planning that get together party for viewing that sports game couldn’t be any easier. You have the main meal on the menu. All you need now is those guests, drinks, and a tv for game watching! Don’t forget to use that McCain products at Walmart rebate!

A twist to the typical hamburger recipe: Hamburger Salad made 2 ways! The original ketchup-mayonnaise dressing or the Sriracha-mayonnaise dressing has nothing when compared to the toppings of this salad. It is basically a deconstructed hamburger with those tasty McCain® potato products on top along with tomato, lettuce, cheese, onion, and a juicy hamburger patty.

    Hamburger Salad: Made 2 Ways Recipe
  • Add in breadcrumbs. Mix well and then form the hamburger patties. You can have a smaller sized patty (about 31/2"-4" across, 1" thick) for the kid version, a larger sized patty (about 5" across and 1"-2" thick) for the adult version. Note that the patties will shrink some during cooking when using 80/20 ground beef.
    Hamburger Salad: Made 2 Ways Recipe
  • Cook these patties via grill or in a cast iron skillet. Cook patties 5 minutes on one side, then flip and continue to cook for another 5 minutes.

  • Place patties on a paper towel-lined plate while they cool.

Salad

  • Cook the McCain® potato products by heating up a few inches of oil to 300 degrees F. In 3-4 batches, fry the potatoes for about 4 to 5 minutes, until they are becoming more golden. Remove each batch from the oil and drain them on a paper towel-lined plate or tray.
    Hamburger Salad: Made 2 Ways Recipe
  • If salad mixes are not pre-washed, make sure to do so before eating. Place serving size amounts (about 1 1/2-2 cups for kid version and 3-4 cups for adult version) in bowls or plates and set aside. Buttered lettuce: for kid version and Spring Mix: for adult version
  • Prep the tomato and onion by chopping up; set to the side.

  • Prepare the dressings. For the each dressing, add the ingredients and mix well. Set to the side.
    Hamburger Salad: Made 2 Ways Recipe
  • Once the hamburger patties and the potato products have cooled down enough to eat, begin to construct the salads. For the kid version, each bed of buttered lettuce will be topped with a cut-up hamburger patty, shredded mild cheddar cheese, diced tomatoes, McCain® Smiles® Mashed Potato Shapes and McCain® Extra Crispy Crinkle Fries, and the ketchup-mayonnaise dressing.

  • For the Adult Version Hamburger Salad: each bed of spring mix lettuce will be topped with 1-2 hamburger patties, shredded pepper jack cheese, diced tomatoes, diced onion, McCain® Seasoned Curly Fries and the Sriracha-mayonnaise dressing.

You ever feel so overwhelmed that you don’t know You ever feel so overwhelmed that you don’t know where to even begin? You then totally shutdown because that seems a whole heck of a lot easier than opening and closing out tabs 🤷🏻‍♀️ With school less than a week away, a lot of us may be starting to feel that pressure. So what to do? 

Here is something that has truly helped me when it comes to mental tab overload…put it all down on paper. Get that mess out of yo’ head, ok? Now this may not help you actually complete these tasks, but it will make it a whole lot easier to focus so you can take one at a time. As we approach this new school year, take a moment to reset…clean off the dashboard and start fresh. Have a planner? Go ahead and fill out important dates that are coming up during the school year. Want to start meal prepping? Write down the meals that you want to fix. Maybe you have goals for yourself or family. PUT IT ALL DOWN ON PAPER. 

Pray about all the things currently on your plate. Pray for guidance, direction and most of all, completing these things with joy. 

“You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.” -Psalm 16:11
