McAloo Tikki Burger (McDonald's) (1 Serving)

Choose a smaller portion: eat half the burger and save the rest for later, rather than adding fries or a sugary drink.

Pair it with a side salad of non-starchy vegetables, such as cucumber, tomato, lettuce, or bell peppers; use a light, unsweetened dressing.

Have plain Greek yogurt or unsweetened curd alongside the meal to add protein and slow absorption.

Skip soda, shakes, sweet tea, ketchup-heavy sauces, and desserts; choose water, sparkling water, or unsweetened tea instead.

Eat the protein- and vegetable-containing sides first, then eat the burger slowly over 15–20 minutes.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after eating, if this is safe and suitable for you.
