1
Prepare the Beef Patty
In a bowl, combine the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Mix gently and form into two equal-sized patties.
2
Cook the Patties
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the beef patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until desired doneness. In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty to melt.
3
Prepare the Buns
While the patties are cooking, slice the burger buns in half and toast them lightly on a separate pan or in a toaster.
4
Assemble the Cheeseburgers
On the bottom half of each bun, place a cooked beef patty with melted cheese. Top with lettuce and sliced tomato. Cover with the top half of the bun.
5
Serve
Serve the cheeseburgers immediately with your favorite sides.
