Daily Fit 5/27/19: Healthy Burger Bun Hack

Health Tip Of The Day: Craft A Healthier Burger Today By Cutting An Avocado In Half To Create A Makeshift Bun.

The Hack: Celebrate the unofficial start of summer and enjoy your Memorial Day by crafting a healthier burger bun. Simply substitute that carb-heavy, empty calorie-laden sesame bun for two avocado halves to make yourself a keto-approved burger in no time. This crafty bun alternative is super simple to make; simply slice an avocado down the middle, remove the pit and place your burger patty in between the two halves. Although most nutritionists don’t recommend downing an entire avocado at every meal, the fruit does boast a lot more nutrients compared to your standard potato bun — making it a healthier alternative on a day when you’re naturally going to indulge.

Other Creative Avocado Uses: Avocados are good for so much more than just making delicious guac. If you’re vegan, cooking for vegan guests or just an avocado fanatic, you can use the green fruit in place of eggs to make fluffy baked goods that fit into your diet. The creaminess of avocados will keep your cupcakes and brownies moist and tasty, even when they’re egg-less. Read on to discover other creative uses for avocados. [Swirled]
