    List of Ingredients




    Hearty Cheeseburger Salad

    1 pound ground beef
    1/2 of a 2-ounce box (1 envelope) onion soup mix (1/4 cup)
    3/4 cup water
    6 cups shredded leaf or iceberg lettuce
    1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved or quartered
    1 medium green, red, or yellow sweet pepper, cut into bite-size strips
    1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced and separated into rings
    1-1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar, Swiss, American, or Colby cheese (6
    ounces)
    French Pickle Dressing (see recipe below)
    Crumbled crisp-cooked bacon (optional)


    Recipe



    1. In a large skillet, cook ground beef until brown. Drain off fat.
    Sprinkle dry onion soup mix over meat; stir in water. Bring to boiling;
    reduce heat to medium and cook, uncovered, about 4 minutes or until no
    water remains.

    2. Meanwhile, in a very large bowl, combine lettuce, tomatoes, sweet
    pepper, and red onion. To serve, divide lettuce mixture among 6 salad
    plates. Top each serving with some of the warm meat mixture. Sprinkle
    with cheese. Serve with French Pickle Dressing. Sprinkle with
    crisp-cooked bacon, if you like. Makes 6 main-dish servings.

    French Pickle Dressing: In a small bowl, stir together 1 cup bottled
    creamy French salad dressing and 1/3 cup mustard-style hot dog relish,
    sweet pickle relish, or dill pickle relish. Cover; chill in refrigerator
    for at least 30 minutes. Makes 1-1/3 cups.
