Loaded burger bowls pickles, bacon, guacamole and also “special sauce”! These low-carb burger-bowl are paleo and Whole30, also.
Burger bowls wed all the gorgeous things about burgers (The savory steak, rich avocado, salty and crispy bacon, briny pickles, also that gently sweet, creamy sauce! ) Using a much healthier and simpler means.
You receive a bite of all with each forkful, and there is no need to search for the absolutely leafed lettuce to wrap your hamburgers . Nope! Just piled everything into a bowl, and you are set.
- If you are on a Whole30, do not utilize the maple-syrup at the special-sauce, then just the coconut-aminos. If you are not on a Whole30, then forget the coconut-aminos and then opt for the maple-syrup.
- You may swap the lime-juice for the lemon-juice, if you would like. I wished to maintain the flavor more neutral, however a Tex-Mex flair could be delicious!
- Do not skimp on the bacon in this recipe! The best, thickest cut you can find, the better.
Wine Pairings
NO wine Whole30, no exceptions. I suggest purchasing wine out of Scout and Cellar, particularly for lower sugar or carb and the health-conscious. There is no extra sugar to such wines, and they are all low-carb, calories, and sugar.
