The ‘World’s Healthiest Meal' Is A Burger And Fries - With A Twist

image

There are over 50 ingredients in this burger and not a single one of them is a patty of grease-laden meat.

We can’t vouch for the taste, but this is what is being described as the world’s healthiest meal; a burger, fries and shake made up of over 50 superfoods.

The ‘nutriburger’ features a gluten-free brioche bun and beet, natto, quinoa and mushroom burger - and if you haven’t even heard of half those ingredients, you are not alone.

It’s accompanied by purple and orange sweet potato fries and a thick chocolate shake made of cacao, bee pollen and activated nuts.

The entire meal has an ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) value that is equivalent to that of eating 1.5kg of blueberries and provides more than 100% of your daily allowance of fibre, vitamin A, vitamin C and iodine and is rich in B vitamins, vitamin E, vitamin K, magnesium, potassium, selenium, choline and zinc, as well as being both gluten- and dairy-free and suitable for vegetarians.

It was created by chef and nutritionist Libby Limon for the deals website Groupon, where you can download the recipe for free.

Ms Limon said: “This meal takes healthy eating to the next level - the superfood ingredients will help you put spring back in your step after a late night or give your immune system that extra boost.

"It’s super nutritious and full of antioxidants, probiotics, polyphenols, healthy fats, vitamins and minerals so there’s no need to feel guilty while indulging in this burger.

"The ingredients list might initially appear overwhelming but it’s easy to make.”
