California Burger (GLP-1)
A GLP-1 friendly California-style burger built on lean seared ground beef bound with black beans for extra fibre, tucked into a whole wheat sandwich thin with avocado, lettuce, tomato and red onion. Protein-forward and light on refined carbs, finished with a smear of Dijon for tang.
