I often get asked if our VERY popular Crock Pot Cheeseburger Sandwiches can be made without Velveeta. So I decided to give it a try and since then we have been using our altered recipe in this Crock Pot Cheeseburger Salad (and we also make them into Crock Pot Cheeseburger Lettuce Wraps too! Oh. My. Word is this recipe good!
This recipe is perfect for potlucks. You can make Crock Pot Cheeseburger Salad meat and then offer guests buns for sandwiches and bagged salad for those who prefer it as a salad. The great thing is all the toppings are the same! Pickles, Tomatoes, Onions, Ketchup, Mustard and Mayo all can be used to top this yummy salad.
UPDATE: We love this Cheeseburger Salad so much, we often wrap it up in low carb tortillas to make for an awesome meal on the go. So much so that we recently listed it as one of our favorite road trip foods in the video below.

- As with any of our recipes, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly depending on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish.

Lynda Brechtbill says This recipe is made at least once week, usually in a skillet. About half the time I put some on a small tortilla, tp with a second tortilla & cook for three minutes on each side in the air fryer. Great quesadilla! It does make a very good salad any time.
Thanks for such a great recipe! Now it’s the time of year to starts making soups in the crock!Reply
