When you’re on a diet, searching for new recipes can easily become a daily challenge. In the beginning of your weight loss journey, it typically seems like discovering new and inventive ways to incorporate protein and vitamins into your diet while reducing your intake of fat and carbs. But after a few weeks, your recipes might start to feel a bit repetitive.
The trick to not getting bored with your diet is to always try something new – but we know that is easier said than done. To make your goals come more easily to you, we’ve found a new recipe you must try to help melt fat and lose weight.
If curry isn’t already one of your go-to meals, your life is about to change. Curry is equipped to become your best friend in a weight loss diet because it contains some of the most important elements of a healthy meal: a protein base, vitamin-rich vegetables, anti-inflammatory spices… plus, curry is typically very low in carbs because it is traditionally served over rice.
While it is very hard to go wrong when selecting a curry recipe to try, we’ve found the best one for melting fat. It uses chickpeas, potatoes, turmeric, coriander, cumin, green chili and ginger to deliver powerful anti-inflammatory benefits, vitamins and essential protein to your body. These benefits can help boost your metabolism and stimulate weight loss.
You can find the full recipe for Chickpea Potato Curry on Olive Magazine. It’s a fairly easy meal to prepare and only takes about an hour to make.
To make this curry recipe even more beneficial to your weight loss goals, try serving it over barley or farro instead of the traditional rice. These ancient grains are rich in fiber, B vitamins and magnesium, so they are a better choice in carb for a diet.
