Lean Flank Steak Chili
"This is your basic chili just cleaned up for better macros," Ronnie Lubischer, CSCS, of Lubischer’s Burn and Blast Training tells us. "I’ve been eating this for years and never feel like I’m dieting. This recipe is also filled with muscle building amino acids and health and immunity building properties such as b vitamins, zinc, selenium, and iron."
Instructions: Pan sear the flank steak on high heat for about 3 minutes on each side with the seasonings of your choosing, then slice it and throw it in slow cooker to cook through. Next add organic beef stock, organic beans of choice, chopped peppers, diced white onion, seasonings (cumin, chili powder, cayenne pepper, turmeric, and my secret ingredients of soy sauce and espresso powder). Set on the low setting for 6 to 8 hours.
Macronutrients: It contains approximately 40 grams of protein, 13 grams of carbs, 11 grams of fat and 330 calories per serving.
Stewed Chicken Thighs And Red Lentils
"Another favorite of mine," Ronnie shares with us. "This dish contains the full B spectrum of vitamins along with iron, zinc, selenium, and phosphorus. Cook slow and low and you will have a melt-in-your-mouth stew. If you want a leaner version, make it with chicken breast and white (cannelloni) beans. If you'd like to beef up your carbohydrates intake, add rice or pasta.
Instructions: First take 6-8 organic boneless chicken thighs and pan sear for 3-4 minutes on each side, then put them in the slow cooker to finish cooking.
