Over the years I’ve come to love a good hamburger. I mean a really good hamburger made with good meat and quality toppings. And when you are on a low carb diet, these burgers make a great dinner that both my family and I enjoy. Recently on a food shopping trip in the Strip district, my friend Lisa took us to Cafe Raymond for a bistro burger. It was seriously the best burger I ever had. Today I give you my version with this bacon cheeseburger with balsamic onions & garlic aioli. It was sooooo good. I nixed the bun and was in total heaven.

Don’t you just love the combination of bacon and cheeseburger? I have a made many low carb recipes like my bacon blue cheese burger stuffed portobello, bacon blue cheese burger salad and bacon cheeseburger frittata. That’s quite a range of food canvases for these ingredient! But in this burger the balsamic onions make it. I had a some left over and ate them on my salad. I will be making a chicken dish this week with mushrooms and these onions so look out for that post.

And so this is how I ate my burger … without the bun. I did not miss it at all. There is so much flavor in the other ingredients that you don’t really need it. My burger is not exactly like Cafe Raymond’s in that they had wilted spinach and I will try that next time.

I hope you enjoy this tasty burger! If you are ever in Pittsburgh, check out Cafe Raymond and ask for the Bistro Burger. The nutrition for 1 burger without the bun is:

604 cals / 43.1g fat / 8.1g carbs / 1.1g fiber / 43.8g protein = 7.0g net carbs
