Philly Burger on a Keto Bun with Zucchini Fries
Meal prepping just got a whole lot tastier! 🍔 I recently tried this Philly Burger on a Keto Bun, and it was an absolute hit. Juicy ground beef, caramelized onions, melted queso, and crispy onions make this burger irresistible. Pair it with grilled zucchini fries, and you have a healthy, satisfying meal that's perfect for any day.👩🍳 I found the idea from a video and added my own twist with queso cheese. It’s an easy way to enjoy the classic Philly flavors while staying on track.
Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef and optional veggies
½ pack au jus mix (for seasoning)
1 onion, caramelized
4 keto-friendly burger buns (spread melted buttered )
Skim mozzarella cheese (top each bun and toast )
1 tbs. Nacho cheese thinned with skim milk. (I used water and Queso cheese, works too!)
Crispy onions (for crunch)
Zucchini (cut into fry shapes, lightly seasoned)
Instructions:
Prepare the Beef: Cook the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat. Mix in the au jus seasoning for extra flavor.
Caramelize the Onions: Slice the onion and cook in a bit of butter until golden and soft.
Toast the Buns: Spread butter ( I used I cant believe its butter spray) on the cut sides of the keto buns, sprinkle with mozzarella, and toast until golden.
Assemble the Burgers:
Add a scoop of ground beef onto the bottom bun.
Top with caramelized onions, queso cheese, and crispy onions for crunch.
Add the top bun, or serve open-faced for a lighter option.
Make Zucchini Fries: Toss zucchini slices with a bit of oil, salt, and pepper. Grill until tender and slightly charred.
