Green Chile Cheeseburgers, Keto-style

Made green chile cheeseburgers for lunch today, and wrapped the burger in lettuce instead of carb-laden buns.
 
I'm guessing one of the tasks of a hamburger bun is to absorb the excess fat and juice; lettuce just holds it until the bottom leaf cracks, pouring about a tablespoon of hot grease directly onto your crotch. Yowtch!!
 
Gonna have to re-think this....

Counting to ten only makes it Premeditated.

    LOL, I think I'd rather just put the meat on the plate, topped with whatever you like... and eat it with a fork. Lettuce ain't a bun! =)

    Maybe you could use a couple of portobellos? Never tried it myself.

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!
