Lo-Dough means freedom to eat more freely, and this is the ultimate example of it, with delicious grilled beef, cheese, and salad to make a thoroughly enjoyable meal, for only 13g carbs.
Even when loaded up with cheese and burger sauce (light mayo and tomato ketchup combined), this meaty monster still only came out at 462 calories for the lot.
Topped with a few choice adornments (crispy lettuce, juicy tomato, raw red onion, a sliced gherkin), it's a total cinch to make and ready in 10-15 minutes.
You need to cut out some rounds from your Lo-dough, but don't throw out the offcuts. Put them in a food processor, whizz them up into crumbs and then put them into a sealed box in your fridge for up to 3 days or freeze to use later as part of one of our bakery recipes (one piece of Lo-Dough is 28g - all our recipes work to this measurement unless stated otherwise).
