Preparation

  • In a skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned, adding garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.

  • In a large bowl or individual serving bowls, layer the chopped lettuce as the base.
  • Top the lettuce with cooked ground beef, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and shredded cheese.
