Welcome to the era of guilt-free pleasure.
For some years now, the Fast Food concept has been reinvented to become a gastronomic experience that is no longer enjoyed only once a month. The hamburger has always been categorized as an unhealthy option, high in fat and calories. However, in recent years a growing trend of healthy proposals has emerged, offering a delicious and nutritious alternative for those seeking a balanced diet without giving up the taste and satisfaction of a good burger.
At Frankie Burgers we aim to disprove the most deeply rooted beliefs in the collective mind about our star product.
Can a hamburger be healthy? Yes. Can it not be? Of course it can.
Keep reading, at the end of this post we can assure you that you'll be craving a burger, but a good one.
Healthy burgers: a balanced combination of ingredients
What makes a hamburger a healthy dish? The most important thing lies in the quality of its products. Healthy burgers are made with fresh, high-quality, nutritious ingredients and are consciously prepared to offer a more nutritionally balanced option, i.e. a balanced content of protein, carbohydrates and healthy fats.
And quality is just as important as the ingredients: artisanal processes and the avoidance of artificial additives and preservatives are the key to a healthy hamburger.
What makes Frankie's burgers a healthy and delicious option?
Starting with a lean beef 100% specially knife-chopped on Frankie Burgers' own premises, bacon baked of the highest purity, the chicken from our Crispy Chicken (and we are talking about real chicken), our cheddar cheese perfectly melted and with its characteristic and intense flavor.
We could also talk about the sauce (super secret, of course) very much our own and free of huge and unnecessary amounts of sugar. Or, the brioche bread carefully chosen to match the rest of the ingredients (because it would be a bit silly to skimp on quality in the element that holds it all together).
And for our colleagues vegans and veggiescan turn any of our burgers into vegan or vegetarian options (for those who can't give up cheese).
And if you want, we can go on talking about pickles, onion, lettuce, guacamole and even tomato, but there is only one way for you to believe what we are telling you. Because the kind of burgers we're talking about are the ones where you can taste the quality from the first to the last bite.
By eating a hamburger, you feed your body.
And by now, you're probably wondering why we're making this speech of pride and satisfaction for well-made hamburgers if what you're interested in is being able to eat a hamburger and still have it be healthy.
Don't worry, we'll explain it to you in no time.
Your body (and every neighbor's) needs a series of macronutrients to nourish it and make it work properly, both physically and mentally. Well surprise surprise, you can find all the macronutrients in any of Frankie Burgers' burgers: Carbohydrates in the bun, protein in the meat and fats in the cheese or guacamole (and yes, although many live in denial, your body needs fat to function, keep you satisfied and provide energy).
And, if you're still not convinced because you're one of those who still focus on calories, we're not going to lie to you. If you tell us that it's better to eat a salad than a burger, obviously a salad is going to have fewer calories (it's also going to feed you less). But if we compare your mother's lentils and sausage with our Frankie CheeseWell, note that it doesn't matter what you choose because the calories go hand in hand.
In recent years, it has been demonstrated that it is possible to eat well and healthily while respecting and taking care of food; and paying attention to the demands of a public that is not satisfied with just anything. Frankie Burgers has jumped on the bandwagon without looking back, and without renouncing the flavor that characterizes it.
Our adviceAccompany your Frankie Burger with a good salad (if that's what you feel like) and enjoy without guilt of a good choice. Because the key is how you eat, not what you eat. But since you're going to eat, eat a Frankie.
