Low Carb Paleo Bacon Burger Recipe

Are you ready for some healthy recipes?? I hope so because they are here whether you like it or not! After a marathon of holiday face-stuffing, I really need to fuel my body with protein and greens.

Until I feel less like the Stay Puft marshmallow man, I’m going to be cutting sugar and carbs from my diet 6 days per week. Since I am a “foodie”, I can’t just eat dry chicken breast and steamed broccoli. I need delicious food that I will actually look forward to. So all this month, I am planning on giving you guys healthy recipes that are fit for a foodie!

We’ll begin with this low carb double bacon burger. The two pieces of grass-fed beef will fill you up, the savory bacon will satisfy your cravings, and the fried egg will keep it all nice and moist while adding a little extra protein. I serve it on a bed of spinach to help get my greens in. Now that’s my kind of healthy lunch!

Here’s to a fulfilling 2016 and to losing weight while eating bacon!

1. Cook bacon in a cast iron skillet over medium heat until crispy.
2. Remove bacon from pan, place on a paper towel lined plate to drain. Leave drippings in pan.
3. Combine ground beef and seasonings in a bowl. Do not over mix, as it could make the meat tough. Form into six patties.

5. Crack the eggs over the skillet and cook about 3 minutes, until whites are set and yolk is at the desired consistency. Place on top of patties.
