How many Morningstar Farms burgers are allowed at Medifast?

If you’re a vegetarian on the Medifast diet or just looking for some variety in your meal planning, some of your options for your Medifast green and lean meal include meatless patties made by Morningstar Farms. But you might be wondering how many Morningstar Farms patties are on Medifast anyway, right? So let’s take a look at the guidelines.

First of all, you should know that there are three different vegetarian brands of patties that you can eat while following the Medifast diet. They are Morningstar Farms, Boca Burger, and GardenBurger.

For each of these brands, you should check the nutrition information, as you should select patties that have less than six grams of carbs each. If none of these brands are available to you or there are other meatless patties you would like to try, I think it would be fine to follow the same guidelines, but I would also try to match the nutritional stats of approved products when looking at a different brand.

Your serving size for Morningstar Farms (or other brands) is two burgers as part of your lean and green meal. As you can see, the portion is quite generous and that should keep your appetite comfortably in check while taking care of your hunger and nutritional needs for the day.

While you won’t be able to enjoy your veggie burgers with a bun, since bun isn’t on the plan due to high carbs, you may want to try some lettuce wraps as a good alternative. Romaine lettuce makes a great wrap, but for a little extra crunch, try some Iceberg lettuce. Other popular lettuces for sandwich rolls include red lettuce, butter lettuce, raddicchio, and large spinach leaves.

To make your lettuce wraps, you can cut up Morningstar Farms veggie burgers, add some chopped onions, some cabbage, and heat it all up to place in the lettuce wraps. If you eat dairy, consider adding two tablespoons of low-carb ranch dressing for a delicious option. And if you don’t eat dairy, you can cook your veggie patties in two teaspoons of canola oil instead of using nonstick cooking spray. Or use the nonstick spray and chop up 5-10 black olives and add them to your lettuce wraps for a great tasting lean, green Medifast meal.
