Homemade LCHF Burgers

28 Comments | Food & Drink

So my boyfriend and I were out looking for some birthday presents earlier, and I had to go with him to McDonalds. He had the biggest burger and my mouth got so watery, so I knew what today’s dinner had to be. He’s going out tonight so I made dinner for one, and what a dinner it was!! It is low in carbs, high in fat, and ridiculously tasty! I think this must be the yummiest low carb dinner I’ve ever made, and it’s way better than McDonalds, I can tell you that for sure. Just check out this badboy!

I wasn’t planning on blogging it so I didn’t take any pictures while making it, and it doesn’t look very pretty, haha. But who cares, it’s just a burger. A lot of lchf recipes I’ve tried, especially those replacing bread, have had a significant egg flavor. These hamburger breads didn’t taste like egg at all,in fact they were really really good. Here’s what you need for two hamburger breads (four parts in total):

◊ 1 dl of sesame seeds ◊ 1 dl of cheese ◊ 1 teaspoon of baking powder ◊ 2 eggs ◊ 1 small tablespoon of  psyllium husk (fiberhusk) ◊ A little salt ◊ A little sweetener (sukrin). I think that last ingredient can be left out if you don’t have it.

Here’s what you do: Put the sesame seeds in a blender and mix them until they look like flour. Put everything else in and blend well. Shape the batter into two balls, and press them down to the size you want them. Put some sesame seeds on top for decoration. Put them in the oven at 200 degrees for about fifteen-twenty minutes.

I made the beef from ground beef, and when they were almost finished I put bacon in the pan, and cheddar cheese on top of the beef. I put a lid on the pan for a minute or two so that the cheddar melted. You can of course put whatever you want on the burger. I put on hamburger dressing, sliced tomatoes, sliced onions, avocado and a slice of bacon.

I guess it’s a bit late for this to be your dinner tonight, but try it some other day! Whether you eat low carb like me or not, I’m sure you’ll love it!

I got the recipe here. His bread looked so much prettier than mine, haha. Who cares, it tasted fan-fucking-tastic!! I’ve also made raspberry jelly and whipped cream, but I don’t think I’ll manage to eat it after this dinner, I’m so full! I’m such a foodie though, so I bet the dessert will be in my stomach in an hour or so, hah. Now Bella and I are ready for a movie night, do you have any recommendations for me? I’m thinking something with Gerard Butler, but it’s not a must. Shoot!♥♥

  2. Please stop with this high fat diet and posting LCHF recipes, all those saturated fats and trans fats does nothing but harming your body and clogging your blood vessels! I’m studying biomedicine and both the professors and the students are really concerned about healthy (and unhealthy) people are stuffing thereself with all these unhealthy fats!

    I know it might be good for weightloss but it actually harmful in the long run! I’m not trying to tell people what to eat, I just want people to know it’s dangerous.

    I love your blog, and take care!

  3. Hei, søta! Ville bare si at du alltid får meg til å le! Jeg elsker skrivemåten din, det er alltid humor i bakgrunnen. Du er så kul! Og ikke minst vakker.
    Jeg vil anbefale deg å teste ut Netflix! (Med mindre du allerede har det?) Der skal det visst være en ny serie som har kommet og heter: “House of Cards”. Har ikke sett den før (er alltid i utgangspunktet skeptisk til TV-serier, jeg blir så fort lei og mister interessen), men det er i hvert fall det jeg skal gjøre i kveld! Kjæresten er på jobb og jeg har sofaen for meg selv. Ergo trenger jeg også underholdning. Prøv den og fortell meg gjerne hva du synes!:)

  4. Hi Cath!:)
    I firstly want to start off with saying that you’re blog is absolutely amazing! You’re so so beautiful and you have a great sense of style!
    This seems like an odd question, but I’ll ask it anyways! What the heck!
    I’ve been reading your blog for ages, and I remember you buying a red vintage dress from the 1940s! The dress is absolutely beautiful and I was wondering if you were considering selling it!:) If not then I understand, it is amazing. But if you do, then I would definitely be interested! I hope this didn’t seem odd!:) Again, I love your blog and you seem like the nicest person ever!:)
    Have a great day!:)

  6. Geg har en mastergrad i Gerard Butler-filmer.

    Har du sett The Bounty Hunter? En film jeg tenkte var typisk “chickflick”, men den var overraskende morsom. The Ugly truth er også veldig bra – men om du er keen på noe med LITT mer tak i: Se Frankie. Du glemmer den aldri. Styr unna Machine Gun Preacher. Hadde jeg sett den FØR Kony-drama-lamagreiene hadde jeg sikkert likt den, men siden jeg så den etter syns jeg faktisk det bare var veldig teit….

    (Vet at det nå er sent og at du sikkert har sett film for i kveld, men allikevel… Sjekk de ut!)

  7. Haha liker det! Tusen takk for tips :D Sett bounty hunter og ugly truth tror jeg, men fant ‘Playing for Keeps’ med Gerard Butler, så den nå ;p ikke så veldig bra, men typisk chick flick :)

  8. This burger is just seeds, eggs, veggies and meat basically, absolutely not bad for you! In fact, very healthy. So we have very different ideas of what a ‘dangerous’ diet is. Thank you so much :)

  10. Hi sweetie :) I don’t think I want to sell it, I love it so much even though I’ve never worn it and probably never will, haha. Not ready to let it go :/ Thank you sweetie!

  12. Hei Cath.!
    Jeg lurte veldig på den turen til New York som du tok når du startet å blogge. Selv vurdere jeg å ta en tur over dammen for 2 mnd og komme meg bort fra hverdagen i Norge en tur. Men føler jeg må finne ut hvordan man skal gjøre dette. Så:
    – Reiste du helt alene?
    – Hvor/hvordan bodde du?
    – Hvor mye penger bør man minst ha oppspart?
    – Hva bør man egentlig forberede seg på og ha kunnskap om på forhond?

    Vil vite ALT.!:D
    Vennlig Hilsen Linda :)

  13. WHAT hvor fant du den i god kvalitet?! Den kommer jo ikke på DVD før 5. mars…! Jeg gleder meg så til å se den. Driter i om den er bra eller ikke – det er Gerard Butler.

    Filmen du burde se het selvfølgelig DEAR Frankie. Det var et ord som falt ut der, gitt!

  17. Nei det bør man ikke, men du kan lage dine egne :) Jeg lager “tacobrett”. Ett “brett” består av en skive norvegia brettet i to, en del parmesan oppå pluss litt tacokrydder, inn i ovnen på 250 grader til det blir stivt, så er det ferdig. Så er det bare til å lesse på, smaker helt fantastisk :D

  22. Består kostholet ditt kun av LCHF? I så fall, hvordan ser en typisk dag ut for deg når det gjelder mat? Jeg vurderer selv å begynne å prøve ut dette, da jeg dessverre konsumerer litt mer karbohydrater enn det som er sunt. Vil det si at du har kuttet ut alt av pasta, brød som da ikke er selvlaget eller hvordan praktiserer du det? :) Ikke McDonald’s mat ser du til :P Elsker bloggen din, forresten!

  23. Ja jeg spiser kun LCHF, men det er vanvittig lett, selv om det kanskje høres litt komplisert ut. Jeg spiser mye mer god mat nå enn jeg gjorde før, så jeg elsker det :) Jeg spiser brød, men da hjemmelaget eller ihvertfall en lavkarbovariant. Jeg er ikke nazi på karbohydratene og teller aldri gram osv, men kutter ut pasta og slike ting, og alt som inneholder sukker. Snop, det meste av frukt osv. Det er helt utrolig hvor mye bedre man føler seg når man kutter ut karbohydrater som får blodsukkeret til å svinge hele dagen! Jeg har alltid vært mest glad i middag når det kommer til måltider, så jeg lager nesten alltid ekstra mye middag og har rester til frokost/lunch dagen etter. Middagene varierer jeg hele tiden, elsker å prøve nye oppskrifter. Ellers spiser jeg ofte omelett, lavkarboskiver osv :)

  24. huff ja jeg bestemte meg for ett års tid siden at jeg aldri mer skal spise Mc Donald’s .. for når man tenker seg om så smaker det egentlig bare guffent.. spessielt i forhold til ett godt hjemmelaget måltid slik som det der!
