Nutrilite Recipes: Chipotle Veggie Burger

Summer is here — the season of steaks, burgers and BBQ!

Let’s face it – grilled foods and backyard BBQ fare is not always the healthiest, or the most nutrient-packed—we’re looking at you, hotdogs!

For those who want to eat light and still get complete nutrition, an easy homemade veggie burger with using Nutrilite™ All Plant Protein Powder is a great choice.

This delicious Chipotle Veggie Burger recipe gets its kick of flavor from natural ingredients like peppers and garlic. Plus, with a juicy tomato on top, it’s a meal that offers healthful phytonutrients from every color family!
