Cheeseburger Cups Substitution Ideas

• Cheese: As is common with a traditional cheeseburger, you can choose any cheese that you like to adorn the top of your cups. You can make this recipe dairy-free by using dairy-free cheese.
• Meat: If you aren't a fan of ground hamburger, you could use ground turkey or ground chicken.
• Toppings: I use ketchup, mustard, pickles, Worcestershire sauce, and sesame seeds. You could add mayo to the mixture or add whatever toppings you like on your cheeseburgers. Some ideas are avocado, bacon, or sliced, sauteed mushrooms.

Here are the steps you'll need to follow to create the cutest cheeseburger cups:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Spray a muffin tin with cooking grease.

• Season meat with salt and pepper.
• Transfer meat into a mixing bowl for the next step (or leave in skillet, depending on how many dishes you want to do).
• Add in ketchup, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix until evenly coated.
