Ingredients

Scale

For the Fries:

  • 2 large Russet potatoes, peeled and cut into ½” thick fries
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil or olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon nutritional yeast (optional for extra flavor)

For the Special Sauce:

  • ⅓ cup paleo mayo (you can make your own or buy it)
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 3 tablespoons ketchup (make sure it’s paleo-compliant)
  • 1 tablespoon dill pickle relish or chopped dill pickles
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder

For the Bowls:

  • 6 slices of paleo-friendly beef bacon (look for sugar-free)
  • 1 pound of ground beef (80% lean, grass-fed is best)
  • Sea salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Large pinch of garlic powder
  • 4 cups of greens (hearts of romaine are fantastic)
  • 1 cup of cherry tomatoes, halved or sliced
  • 1 medium purple onion, thinly sliced
  • Sliced dill pickles (again, sugar-free)
  • 1 large avocado or 2 small ones

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 425°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare Fries: In a bowl, toss the sliced Russet potatoes with avocado oil, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and nutritional yeast. Spread the fries out on one baking sheet, ensuring they’re not touching.
  3. Bake Fries: Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for about 30 minutes. Flip them halfway through until they’re golden brown and crispy.
  4. Cook beef Bacon: On the second baking sheet, lay out the beef bacon slices. Bake them alongside the fries for 16-20 minutes until crispy. If you prefer, you can pan-fry the beef bacon in a skillet until done.
  5. Make Special Sauce: While everything bakes, whisk together all the special sauce ingredients in a small bowl until mixed well. Set it aside.
  6. Cook Ground Beef: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, drizzle a bit of oil and add the ground beef. Season it with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Cook for about 2–3 minutes, stirring until it’s browned.
  7. Assemble Bowls: Start by dividing the greens among your bowls. Top each bowl with the cooked ground beef, crispy beef bacon, cherry tomatoes, onions, pickles, hot fries, and slices of avocado. Drizzle the special sauce over everything or keep it on the side for dipping.

Notes

Serving Suggestions: These burger bowls are hearty and satisfying on their own, but feel free to add a light side salad or some steamed veggies for added nutrition.

Tips & Tricks:

  • For extra crispy fries, try soaking them in water for at least an hour before roasting. This helps remove excess starch.
  • If you’d like to switch it up, use sweet potatoes instead of Russet potatoes with the same roasting instructions.

Storage & Reheating Instructions:
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. When you’re ready to eat, gently reheat them in a skillet over low heat to keep the texture nice; microwaving can make the fries soggy.

Enjoy your journey with these Paleo Burger Bowls with Fries! They’re not just a meal; they’re a satisfying experience that keeps the comfort without compromising on health.
