What can I serve with burgers other than chips?

[Quooker]

We had chips yesterday, forgetting that I had planned to make burgers today. I plan to serve them in a bun, with salad but what else can I put with them other than chips

Wedges
Sweet potato
Rice salad
Coleslaw

Do you need anything if you have a bun and salad?

Cous cous? Or a salad?

Make a fresh healthy coleslaw?hmmmm lovely I want it now!
Or potato salad?

My teens would not be impressed with just a burger and salad. Coleslaw is a good idea. I had thought of sweet pot chips, but ds isn’t keen.

We just do a bun and salads. Coleslaw is my favourite.

Courgette chips? You can slice courgette sprinkle with grated Parmesan and bake- delicious

How about some roasted med veg?

Red And yellow peppers, cherry tomatoes, red onion. Sprinkle on a bit of thyme and rosemary. Good glug of olive oil. Mix well.

Whack in the oven for about 45-50 mins at 180°c.

Seriously tasty. They might like it 😂 you could even add some halloumi cheese cubes towards the end?

Potato salad would be good. Just feel it needs another carb.

Courgette chips sound delicious, unfortunately the burgers already have courgette in them.

Yes! A slice of halloumi.

Corn on the cob

Salad or another vegetable based side. If I had a bun I wouldn't be wanting another carb.

Corn on the cob, another excellent idea. Will just have to slice it off for the one with braces

@Rubusfruticosus are you a teenager with hollow legs?

I will not be eating the extra carb.

surely the bun is enough carbs?
we only have salad or veg&dips with burgers

I’d just do chips again tbh. Not gonna hurt once in a while

@Rubusfruticosus are you a teenager with hollow legs? I have an almost 13 year old, and I do know teenagers. Sides are great for getting extra vegetables into them, but if they can eat a burger and a good half a plate of veg and are still hungry then fair enough!

Okay, burger and halloumi in bun, sweet potato chips, lettuce cucumber and cherry tomatoes, coleslaw and corn on the cob.

I have two teenagers with hollow legs but we have big burgers and buns and it does seem to fill us all up. Corn on the cob is a good idea though.

We do sweetcorn on cob, coleslaw, jacket.

@Rubusfruticosus almost 13 I’m not worried about getting veg into them - the burgers are all veg anyway. They are all older teens and very sporty so eat enormous amounts.

Mashed or sliced avocado is great in a burger or in salad.

Onion rings & coleslaw

Onion rings, yum.

I’d have mash or potato croquettes with corn on the cob

I don't find flabby burger buns in any way filling. They're all air....

A small jacket potato? Rice or pasta or potato salad maybe?
