My grill cooked these chicken burgers super fast. I came back and noticed that the temperature on the grill was at 700 degrees. It takes 2 minutes per side if the grill is set to high heat. Heck, even the bacon was already starting to crisp up that fast. Do not walk away from the grill at all when making these. When the burgers are cooking on the grill make your fries. I always cook my frozen french fries at 350 for 10 to 12 minutes. My favorites are the Fast Food fries from Ore Ida or their waffle fries. The hamburger buns I like to use that are only 2 smart points are Village Hearth Light buns. You might have to look that up to see if they are available in your area. Order as much tomato, onion, pickle, and lettuce on your burger as you’d like All of these toppings are zero points! Condiments: Mustard is zero points but ketchup isn’t. Look for brands that say reduced sugar ketchup. Heinz reduced sugar ketchup is 1 tablespoon for zero. Cheese A slice of Velveeta Cheese is going to be 1 smart point per slice. Sargento makes a line of 3 different types “thin” cheese slices: Provolone. Cheddar and Swiss are all 3 slices that range in points from 4 to 5. “Fries or a salad?” Like I said above, I LOVE to make frozen french fries in my air fryer.
