Cheeseburger Salad With Big Mac Dressing

It's National Salad Month and it's National Burger Month. Well, put your hands together, my friends. Here's the recipe for Cheeseburger Salad and Big Mac Dressing. You're welcome. The recipe comes from one of my favorite food blog website, Can You Stay for Dinner?

2 tablespoons full-fat mayonnaise
2 tablespoons full-fat sour cream or yogurt
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 teaspoons water
1 teaspoon white vinegar
1 tablespoon sweet pickle relish
1 tablespoon minced white onion
1 teaspoon sugar
dash Tabasco sauce, or hot sauce
1 teaspoon salt, divided
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 large sweet onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound lean ground beef sirloin
1 large head romaine lettuce, chopped
2 large ripe tomatoes, chopped
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
dill pickle slices (optional)

In a small bowl, whisk the mayonnaise, sour cream, ketchup, water, vinegar, relish, onion, sugar, Tabasco, and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Set aside. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium. Add the onion and saute for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the ground beef and cook for about 6-7 minutes, stirring occasionally and using the spatula to crumble the meat. Add the garlic and stir constantly for 30 seconds, until fragrant. The meat should no longer be pink; if it is, continue to cook until browned. Remove pan from heat and set aside while you assemble the salads. Divide the romaine, tomatoes, and cheese evenly among four large bowls or plates. Divide the beef mixture evenly among the salads. Drizzle each serving with 2 tablespoons dressing. Serve immediately.
