How do you make Bacon Cheeseburger Skillet?

Add the ground beef and break apart using a spatula.
Sprinkle the onion powder, garlic powder, dry mustard, sea salt and black pepper. Stir to combine.
Cook until browned and cooked through. Stir in the tomato paste.
Mix in 1/2 of the shredded cheese until melted and well combined.
Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the beef mixture.
Top with shredded lettuce, tomatoes, bacon, remaining diced onions or any other toppings that you like.
Drizzle with Homemade (Keto) French Dressing, or dressing of your choice, and serve.
I love all things cheeseburger, and this Bacon Cheeseburger Skillet recipe does not disappoint! I had planned to add diced avocado on top, but forgot all about them.
Recipe Notes and Tips:
- I use sharp cheddar cheese because it is lactose-free. Feel free to add your favorite type of cheese.
- Thousand Island Dressing would also be an excellent choice to top this meal, if you can find one that is sugar-free.
- Mt. Olive was the only brand of sugar-free pickle slices that I could find at the grocery store. Make sure you read your labels if you are going to add pickles!
