With 2 tablespoons sauce:
Per Serving: 529 Calories; 45g Fat; 26g Protein; 6g Carbohydrate; 1g Dietary Fiber; 5g Net Carbs

This is a very tasty combination and I especially liked the sauce. The original recipe said to use 2 tablespoons of sauce per serving. Although that would taste good it's a little excessive for one burger. I've given the counts for both ways. The serving in the photo has 1 tablespoon of sauce on it. Most of the carbs are coming from the onion - about 3 net carbs. Since there really aren't a lot of them, the only way to cut back would be to leave them out, but they do add a nice flavor.

Please note that while I've given this the "ok" for induction, because all the ingredients are allowed, I think it's a bit carby for a dish with very little vegetable in it. I suggest that the onion either be omitted or only use a dab for flavor if you're on induction.
