Burgers hold a very special place in my heart. They’re my indulgent food of choice, deathbed meal, etc. I would eat one everyday if I could. Hopdoddy opening in Houston was one of the best pieces of news I’ve heard all year. ALL. YEAR.
TL;DR? I heart burgers. I also heart my pants fitting, so I need to find a way to eat them on the reg that won’t infringe upon that. Hence this chicken burger and baked sweet potato fries
By ditching the bun and opting for poultry, I’ve kept the burger lower in cals, fat, and carbs, which leaves plenty of room for fries. I won’t insult your intelligence by telling you that baked sweet potato fries are a more petite option than deep fried fries.
And I won’t assault your eyes with anything else but this burger recipe. It’s dinner time.
