Even in the phase of our newfound love for sushi and ramen, burgers still stand firm on our list of favorites. Long before pizza came along, this was the kind of burger we craved on our cheat days and on special days like weekends. But, now if your health-driven mind has reduced its presence on your menu, why not make a healthier version of it? As we touch down on the much-awaited weekend, let’s satisfy our burger craving with healthy recipes that will please you and your family. Here we have some of the best healthy burger ideas that offer a mix of both health and taste.
The very first thing to do to make a burger healthier is to replace the buns with healthier alternatives like wheat buns. Then instead of deep frying the patty, fry or bake it. And make sure the filling of the burger is full of nutrition. It’s also a good idea to replace mayonnaise and cheese with hummus, pesto, hung curd and other such sauces.
