Craving a hamburger but feeling guilty about indulging in this American specialty? Replace the bread with a fruit ;-) Yes, you read that right: A FRUIT! Grab your biggest, juiciest tomato, cut it in half, and use it instead of bread! Skewer it all with a mini wooden stick and enjoy. A fantastic gluten-free alternative for all those with intolerances and allergies ;-)

Wash and cut the tomato in half. Spread pesto on each half. Cut the onion and mozzarella into slices and wash the lettuce.
Grill the onion slices in olive oil for 2 minutes on each side. Cook the ground beef for 4 minutes, flip it, then add the mozzarella and cook for another 4 minutes.
Place some lettuce on the bottom half of the tomato, then add the ground beef with mozzarella, followed by the grilled onions. Cover with the other half of the tomato.
