  3. Paleo Burgers with Caramelized Balsamic…
paleo burgers

Who says burgers can’t be healthy!? Paleo Burgers served on a slice of tomato topped with Caramelized Balsamic Onions that will make you swoon and of course Avocado! A quick 30 minute meal you’re family will want on repeat!

Burgers and even STEAKS can be just as good and juice when you make them on a skillet. The key is making sure your pan is seared hot so that you can get a nice sear on your meat to lock in the flavors!

This recipe was originally posted on Joyful Healthy Eats.
