You could substitue with a veggie burger, but I like the crumbled texture of the beef (but my preference is not to crumble in the salad)
I've taken this as a lunch, but I reheat the burger and onions to add to the salad for the sensation of warm with cold.

    Yum - I got this same idea for a salad this weekend as I was craving a burger but didn't want the calories. I had it for lunch today with iceburg lettuce & American cheese. Didn't even miss the fries! Glad you already saved the recipe so I don't have to. Thanks! - 9/10/09

    Amazing! Did not expect to be so yummy. To cut back on the calories further I used Morning Star Veggie Burger Patties and it was still really good! - 1/18/10
