Who says you can't have your burger and eat it too? With a few smart swaps and cooking tricks, you can easily fit a delicious burger into your macros without derailing your fitness goals.

Here's how to healthify your burger game:
- Choose Wisely:
- Opt for the leanest burger patty you can find (90/10 or leaner)
- Swap regular buns for Sandwich Thins
- Go for thin slices of Swiss cheese
- Add pickles, onion, and tomato slice to your taste
-
Grill or Bake Smart:
- Skip the oil. Grill your burgers for that smoky flavor
- Or bake them in the oven on a rack to let excess fat drip away
-
Fry-Free Fries:
- Use an air fryer with a light spritz of avocado oil spray
- Season with black pepper and a pinch of salt
- Alternatively, you can skip the spray oil and bake on parchment paper
- Use sugar-free ketchup for the fries and burger
