- ½ teaspoon soy sauce (sub coconut aminos)
- ½ teaspoon rice vinegar
- ¼ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

- 2–4 slices purple onion

Instructions
- Make Special Sauce: Combine ingredients in a small bowl; Stir to combine. Set aside until the remaining ingredients are ready.
- Caramelized Onions: Bring a large cast iron skillet to medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil and move it around so that the entire pan is coated. Add onions and sprinkle with ¼ teaspoon kosher salt and ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper. Move onions around the pan and bring heat down to medium heat once onions start to cook down. Continue cooking onions for 15-30 minutes, turning heat down as necessary, until they start to turn golden brown. Transfer to a plate and set aside until the rest of the meal is ready.
- Cook Beef: Bring the large cast iron skillet back to a medium high heat. Add 1 pound lean ground beef, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon onion powder, and ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper. Break apart and move around the pan to full brown the ground beef. Pour off any excess grease. Taste and adjust any seasonings, as desired.
- Build Bowls: Divide the lettuce, tomatoes, purple onion, turkey bacon, pickles, and avocado (if using) between bowls. Then divide the cooked hamburger and caramelized onions between the bowls.
- Serve: Top with as much Special Sauce as you want and enjoy!
Notes
Paleo Mayo: use a homemade paleo mayo version; Whole30/Paleo: check ingredients in mayo, ketchup, and pickles; Storage: leftover burger bowl ingredients can be kept in separate airtight containers in the fridge for 3-4 days.
