Want to eat healthier but love burgers? Mooyah Burger, Fries & Shakes is promoting lifestyle burgers for a healthier 2022.

The menu has six lifestyle burgers: Vegan, Paleo, Keto, low-cal, gluten-free and vegetarian.

We tried three of the popular burgers at the Fountains at Farah location, and here's what you can expect.

Victor Hernandez, general manager at Mooyah, demonstrates the Paleo burger at Mooyah Burgers at the Fountains at Farah on Jan. 7. The Paleo is one of the new options included in the restaurant's lifestyle menu.

Mooyah menu picks by El Paso Times

The Paleo is the favorite with two Angus beef patties, smoked bacon, avocado slices, tomato, pickles, onion and mustard between two fresh lettuce bundles. It has 625 calories of good flavor and does not leave you feeling stuffed, just satisfied.

The Low Cal is also a great choice to feel better about your options. At only 285 calories, it has an Angus beef patty, avocado, tomato, onions, and cholula with lettuce for the buns.

The Keto is a Jennie-O turkey burger with cheddar cheese, fresh avocado, tomato, jalapeños, and real mayo sandwiched between two lettuce bundles. The Keto has 580 calories.
