Dr Jockers Comments:
This burger is awesome! It is loaded with essential fats, antioxidants, clean proteins & fiber. The brain depends upon a continual supply of saturated fat and omega 3 fatty acids to build healthy neuronal cell membranes. This burger provides those essential fats and is loaded with unique antioxidants with the Italian herbs and garlic.
This recipe should be a regular staple dinner for you and your family. They should be served with a bed of veggies for added antioxidants. I find that it is especially important to have a lot of veggies with meat in order to reduce the oxidative stress that comes with eating the cooked amino acids (heterocyclic amines). Cooking it at a low temperature for a longer period of time is another helpful strategy.
It is always a great idea to have a healthy burger recipe in your arsenal. My family does something like this almost every week as one of our staple meals. I will often put guacamole on my burger to get more healthy fats and make it ketogenic (a high fat, moderate protein meal as opposed to a high protein meal). It is wholesome, filling and tasty…you will love this burger recipe!!
If you have trouble finding organic and pasture-raised products at your local health food store than try out an online source such as Slankers where you can order just about any type of meat you want and it is all the highest quality. This is a great place to get your lamb chops and they will deliver it right to your door.
