This Savory Tomato Hash is thick, naturally flavorful, and incredibly versatile. It can replace ketchup, tomato spreads, or sauces and works beautifully on sandwiches, burgers, eggs, and homemade breads. Best of all, you control every ingredient.

These cheeseburger wraps deliver everything you love about a classic cheeseburger—savory beef, melty cheese, crunch, and tang—without the ultra-processed bun that often leads to cravings and energy crashes.

⸻

Ingredients (4 Servings)

   •   1 pound 96% lean ground beef

   •   1 onion, chopped

   •   1 tablespoon garlic

   •   1 tablespoon ginger

   •   Dash of cayenne pepper

   •   Sliced red onion

   •   Shredded lettuce

   •   Sliced tomatoes

⸻

Instructions

1. Add the ground beef, chopped onion, garlic, ginger, and cayenne pepper to a skillet.

2. Cook over medium heat, browning the beef until fully cooked and the onions are soft.

3. Allow any excess liquid to simmer off, then stir in the coconut aminos. Remove from heat.

4. Meanwhile, line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

5. Divide the shredded mozzarella into four equal portions (2 oz each) and form into rectangular shapes, spreading evenly to create thin sheets.

6. Top each cheese rectangle with sliced dill pickles and sliced red onion.

7. Bake at 375°F for 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and lightly golden.

Helpful Health Notes

   •   Shred your own cheese: Shredding mozzarella from a block avoids anti-caking agents often found in pre-shredded cheese and keeps ingredients truly single-ingredient.

   •   Protein-forward balance: Each wrap is rich in protein and fat, helping promote fullness and reduce the urge to snack later.

   •   No refined buns or sauces: Skipping ultra-processed bread and sugary condiments supports steadier energy and fewer cravings.

   •   Rectangle shape = success: Rectangles fold more easily than circles and hold fillings without cracking.
