Recipe – Chipotle Cocoa Bison Burgers
Bison tastes similar to beef, but has a leaner fat profile and a slightly sweeter flavour. A 2013 study in Nutrition Research found that compared with beef, bison produces less of a bump in flood triglycerides and less inflammation - both heart disease risk factors. Like beef, bison is packed with iron - part of the protein hemoglobin that transports oxygen from the lungs to the working muscles. The cocoa powder added to the recipe provides a flavour difference and a shot of antioxidants to help fend off cell damaging free radicals.
