Meanwhile, brown ground beef with salt and onion; drain if necessary.

In large bowl, combine cooked pasta, beef/onion mixture, chopped pickles, and Thousand Island dressing. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour.

Just before serving, stir in cheese cubes. Add shredded lettuce to individual portions to avoid it becoming soggy should there be leftovers.

Best served at room temperature.

Note: Toasted sesame seeds can be sprinkled in for even more "Big Mac" flavor.
