Big Mac Salad
This salad has all the flavors of a traditional Big Mac, but is much lighter than a sandwich. It is a great choice for days when you want something that feels filling, without all of the heaviness of a full sandwich. Using dehydrated onions and a homemade Big Mac sauce really elevates this dish.
