Chef’s tips

- Macro estimates assume four equal portions. Check cheese and mustard labels; use local food-safety guidance for beef doneness.
- Nutrition values are planning estimates, not verified laboratory values. Check exact weights and product labels before using them in a strict daily carbohydrate count.
Variations
