Ingredients:
- 1/2 lb (225g) ground beef (80% lean, or leaner if preferred)

- Divide the ground beef into 2 portions and form loose balls (about 4 oz each).
2) Smash the Patties:
- Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
- Once hot, place each beef ball onto the skillet. Using a spatula, smash each one flat to about 1/2 inch thick.
- Season with salt and pepper and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side until nicely browned and cooked through.
3) Assemble the Wrap:
- Place a large lettuce leaf flat on a plate.
- Add a cooked Smash Burger patty on top of each lettuce leaf.
- Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese, diced onions, and any other toppings you like (pickles, tomatoes, avocado).
4) Finish the Wrap:

- Carefully fold the lettuce over the burger to wrap it up. Serve immediately!
