Burgers are one of the first things we all think of when someone mentions fast food, and making them healthy may feel like a mission impossible—but it’s not. If you’re trying to eat healthier without giving them up, these useful tips will help you make your burgers a little bit better.

Bun Choice

Buns are a big part of your burger, and if ditching them isn’t an option, put an effort into making them healthier by opting for whole-grain buns.

Veggie Burger

Veggie burgers experienced a huge surge in popularity in the past few years, and you’ll come to discover they can be as tasty as the real thing if you give them a shot.

Lean Protein

If you’re not ready to give up meat, at least try replacing beef with some lean protein. Burgers made with ground turkey or ground chicken will knock you off your feet.

Healthy Add-Ins

You can use all sorts of different ingredients to upgrade your burger. The healthier they are, the healthier your burger is going to be, and vegetables are the most obvious choice.

Right Condiments

You can completely derail your burger by using the wrong condiments. Check the labels of your ketchup, mayo, and mustard, and make sure they’re not packed with sugar and artificial flavors.
