Burger is one of those fast foods that is loved by people of all ages. Despite its popularity, it is not one of the healthiest foods that one can eat. However, what if we told you that a healthier version could be yours to enjoy just by following these steps and making it at home? The burgers taste as delicious as the ones from your favourite fast food joint plus they are healthier.
To make healthy burgers at home, start by choosing lean proteins like ground turkey, chicken, or lean pieces of lamb for patties.
Use whole grain buns instead of refined ones for added fibre. This will also make you feel satisfied.
Load your burger with veggies like lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and avocado for nutrients and flavour.
Opt for lighter sauces such as Greek yoghurt-based or homemade guacamole to reduce calories.
Limit cheese or choose reduced-fat options, and consider flavourful cheeses like feta.
Grill or bake patties instead of frying to cut down on fats.
Serve with nutritious sides like salads or roasted vegetables instead of fries. These choices boost fibre, vitamins, and minerals in your meal while keeping it delicious.
