Low Carb Teriyaki Burger – Weight Loss Surgery Recipe

I love this low carb burger recipe for two reasons 1) loads of great flavor 2) little time to make.  In fact, if you aren’t wanting too big of a flavor punch, you may consider using only half of the onion soup packet.

These are the types of ingredients you can keep on hand (except the ground beef) and create for “in a pinch” type of dinners. Who doesn’t love those??

What makes this recipe so great for weight loss surgery patients?

1 – None of the ingredients are starchy

2 – Packed with protein! Take small bites, eat slowly and fluids while eating….and you’ll be full for hours!

3 – So much flavor you won’t miss the bun…or even toppings

4 – They make great leftovers for healthy lunches
