CHEW THE RIGHT THING
BITE IT!
HG's Island Insanity Burger
Burger Bliss
Been dying to try one of those cheese-topped, teriyaki-tastic, crazy-high-in-
calories Banzai Burgers at Red Robin? Have this instead...
Ingredients:
1 small hamburger bun (light, if available)
1 Boca Original Vegan Meatless Burger
1 slice fat-free cheddar cheese
1 pineapple ring, packed in juice
1 thick slice tomato
1 leaf lettuce
1 tbsp. thick teriyaki marinade with about 20 - 25 calories per tbsp. (like the
one by Lawry's), divided
1 tsp. fat-free mayonnaise
Directions:
Bring a pan sprayed with nonstick spray to medium-high heat on the stove.
(If you have a grill pan, use it -- you'll get neato grill marks.) Lay pineapple
ring in the pan, and cook until slightly blackened and caramelized, about 3
minutes per side. Set aside to cool.
Cut a slit in the burger pouch. Place burger, slit-side up, in the microwave.
Microwave for just 1 minute (not the time given on the box). If your
microwave is low wattage, microwave for an additional 15 seconds. Remove
patty from the microwave and place on a microwave-safe plate. Pour half of
the teriyaki marinade on top, spread it around, and flip patty to coat evenly
on both sides. Lay cheese slice on top of the patty, and microwave for 30
additional seconds.
Place the burger patty on the bottom half of the bun, and top with the
remaining teriyaki sauce. Add the pineapple ring, tomato, and lettuce.
Spread mayo on the top half of the bun, and finish your burger off with the
bun's top half. Now CHOMP!

Red Robin's Banzai Burger
Teri-YUKi!
What do you get when you match a beefy burger patty slathered in sugary
teriyaki sauce with pineapple, a blob of mayo, and fatty cheddar cheese... all
on a ginormous calorie-packed bun?! You get the chewable monstrosity
known as the Banzai Burger at Red Robin! And that burger happens to pack
in 1,000+ calories, even before you add any sides at all to your plate! Toss
in some fries and, well, forget it -- those numbers are too depressing to type.
Don't chew it, people. Make your very own tasty version of this popular
Hawaiian burger instead, right in your kitchen. Load it up with our ingredient
swaps, and serve it proudly with a stack of our Lord of the Onion Rings. It's
gonna be a pineappley, teriyaki-sauced, cheese-packed day after all. Yay!
