Healthy Cheeseburger and Fries??!!

Yep, I said it! Who knew that eating cheeseburger and fries would be okay, when trying to eat healthier. Chalene Johnson (creator of Turbo Fire and Chalean Extreme) has got to have the best recipes. They are so yummy and delicious. One of the Godbey's favorites is: Cheeseburger and Fries.  Though we do change some of the ingredients up, we still love this recipe.

Cheeseburger and Fries:
 5 oz. Ground Sirlion
1 Whole Wheat Hamburger Bun, toasted,
1 oz. Cheddar Cheese
2 slices of tomato
1 Idaho potato or Sweet Potato, cut into 1-inch stripts
Cayenne Pepper
Mixed Greens Salad
Salt and Pepper to taste
Nonstick cooking spray

Prep:  Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lay the potato strips on a baking sheet and spray well with a nonstick cooking spray. Season the potatoes with salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until they begin to brown and get crispy. Meanwhile, season the ground meat with salt and pepper and form into a patty. Grill or broil burgers until desired degree of done-ness and melt cheese on top. Serve with mixed green salad! Enjoy!


So this meal was super yummy and I couldn't wait to eat it. So that is why some of my burger is missing. Oops!! Most of the time my husband and I use turkey patties instead of the ground sirloin. That's okay though! Sometimes you just have to modify things, just make sure to keep it healthy!!
