Hi

Has anyone made the cheeseburger salad without the cheese? I would like to offer it to the synagogue crowd next month but not if it doesn't taste yummy.

Thanks!
 
Hmmm a buger salad does not sound as appetizing as a cheeseburger salad personally since I can pretty much eat anything with cheese.

But our recipes are wonderful because we can change things to suit our tastebuds and whatever we happen to have on hand in the fridge or pantry.

I don't see why this wouldn't taste good, I mean yes the cheese is yummy, but it is not the main component of this salad. I think the meat, veggies and condiments will still make this salad a winner!!

Debbie :D
 
You can make it without I do all the time and no one really says anything. I make it alot at my shows
 
My hubby doesn't eat cheese so I made it with cheese on the side for dinner one night. Everyone else just sprinkled what they wanted on top.
 
I have made it without cheese before (actually I forgot both the cheese and tomatos - and I don't like onion, so it was just the lettuce and burger/ketchup/relish mix) and it was way yummy!
