Sorry if I'm being dim but just want to get off onto the right foot!
The % is always the same, but the 5 grams of carb is per servering, so for everything it's 20 grams of carbs.
I am wondering though if the 4 serving means that the recipe is four 2 people, meaning 1 burger for dinner and the other one for lunch tomorrow? I had two burgers tonight and I'm totally stuffed now.
But when I look at the recipe for tomorrow I think only half of what it says would be to less for me...would ve really greatfull for your answers and suggestions.
I did not use any of the toppings on top. I put the vegs into the meat, added some olive oil to the raw meat *because Bison* which is lean and dry, and used less cheese and it was Blue cheese at that, melted on top of the finished and hot burgers.
Thanks for the springboard.
Hi Bram!
Maybe this is a better option for lunch if you can't heat your food: https://www.dietdoctor.com/recipes/salad-in-a-jar
Best of luck!
Hi Siv!
It depends on how many servings you're making. If your making 4 servings it's 2 scallions but I'm guessing you've chosen the shoppinglist for 1 person and then you only need to make 2 servings which calls for only 1 scallion.
Best of luck!
I definately agree about the oregano, it was all I could taste for hours later, and made me feel so nauseous! I also was thinking it needed some extra salt, but that may be because I used real onion and garlic instead of the powders...
Thanks :)
If you choose one serving in the menu, then you make one burger.
