INGREDIENT NOTES & THEIR KETO SUBSTITUTIONS:

GREEN CABBAGE:

  • We use green cabbage because it becomes tender while holding its shape after baking. As a substitute, you can use Napa cabbage or Savoy cabbage.

GROUND BEEF:

  • Ground beef provides a juicy texture and rich flavor to these burgers. Instead, you can use ground turkey thighs, ground chicken thighs, or ground lamb.

OLIVE OIL:

  • Olive oil helps the cabbage roast evenly and adds healthy fats.

WORCESTERSHIRE SAUCE:

  • Worcestershire sauce enhances the savory flavor of the burger patties. As a replacement, you can use coconut aminos or simply omit it.

MAYONNAISE:

  • We use sugar-free mayonnaise to add a creamy texture and healthy fats. You can replace it with homemade avocado oil mayonnaise.

KETCHUP:

  • Sugar-free ketchup provides a classic burger flavor without added sugar.

TOMATO:

  • Tomato adds freshness and moisture to the burgers. You can omit it to reduce the carbohydrate content.

PICKLES:

  • Sugar-free pickles provide a crunchy texture and tangy flavor. Instead, you can use fermented cucumber pickles.
