Now during the hectic holiday season, people are stretched for time, money and personal space to relax. Usually nutrition & exercise fly out the window until New Years resolutions in January. Burgers with healthy ingredients can appeal to all of your needs. In particular, my Rosemary Buffalo Burgers help to improve circulation & metabolism while offering immune system support. These are not your greasy, fatty chemical-laden ,what’s in here anyway burgers but solid nutrition that fuels your body.
Since I am an Blood Type O, secretor & Hunter Genotype, Buffalo or beef can actually help my metabolism work more efficiently and provide the nutrition my cells need, while keeping my weight down. Not all red meat is bad for you.
Other blood types likes A’s can eat tofu, chicken, turkey or black bean burgers cooked the same way while B ‘s do great with Buffalo , Beef Turkey or lamb , AB’s with sprouted soy ,turkey or salmon burgers. Whatever protein, you choose this is an easy holiday meal on the run that will fuel your body well and help you to manage stress levels. Don’t skip meals.
The quality of the meat is essential for a healthy burger. Buffalo that are free of anti-biotics and hormones, and are grass fed top the list. Thanks to Ted Turner’s restaurants – TED’s … a chain that I can actually eat in …. Bison or Buffalo is becoming more common.
Rosemary Buffalo Burgers:
1 lb high quality ground buffalo/bison
1 small red onion chopped fine, set aside (option – ground turkey)
1 long sprig of fresh rosemary, snip off the tips with kitchen shears and discard the thick stem, set aside
3 tablespoons of grated Locatelli Italian Sheep’s cheese, set aside
8 oz cremini/baby bella mushrooms, sliced
6 oz fresh salsa
2 oz guacamole
dash of cayenne powder or sliced jalapenos
sea salt , to taste
- Rosemary Buffalo Burger
Mix the Buffalo or turkey with chopped rosemary, red onion and the cheese together. Cook in little ghee or olive oil on a low heat. Flip once until done. Add the sliced mushrooms around the burgers and cook through. Add them on top of the burgers with a dollop of guacamole and a dash of cayenne or sliced jalapenos. Add the fresh salsa around the plate. The option shown here includes fresh asparagus and cherry tomatoes . Serve without additional carbs for a healthy weight maintenence meal or with warmed sprouted grain tortillas ( only 5 carbs ) cut into quarters.
Reminder : The additional holiday sugar-rich foods will take a toll for the worst on your health . Keep healthy snack foods around the house and limit baked goods and suagr laden foods. Keep them for treats. When you do indulge, be sure to use digestive enzymes and glucose control products like Dr. Venessa’s Sugar Balance to bring the insulin back down in about 40 minutes after a meal .
With powerful naturals herbals and foods like Gymnema sylvestre, cinnamon, nopal cactus and banaba leaf to regulate glucose and cedar berries, minerals and vitamins to help strengthen the kidneys, balanced with taurine and vanadium for a healthy mood , this product really works. Just take 2-4 vegetarian tablets after meals containing carbohydrates and/or refined sugars including alcohol , for proper insulin & glucose balance.
- Sugar Balance
Sugar consumtion & over-indulgence can stimulate rapid aging ( yes- more wrinkles!) so give yourself some additional protection.I use this product after a dessert treat , a glass of wine or even after a eating brown rice or spelt pasta, potatoes or bean dishes. Sugar excess ( even a soda !) stuns the immune system for hours allowing your body to be defenseless.
Enjoy a happy , healthy holiday season and eat to live, instead of living to eat . If you need to indulge just take the propper steps to re-balance your body as soon as you can . We all need a treat but don’t make it a daily occurence.
Remember a lower carb organic 70% dark chocolate square can be consumed daily as a nutritional food – so this doesn’t count against you . Enjoy one of your favorite brands like Theo, Dagoba or Bissinger’s after a burger meal!
Your immune system will thank you!
In continued health,
Sally Byrd
