Stay Right Through Winter Nutritional Guides

I hope you've declared which category you fall in: Fat Loss, Weight Gain, and Performance.
We will approach nutrition one of three ways: Paleo, The Zone and/or Intermittent Fasting. I will provide details to each in the gym.


Welcome to the club Eric!

Hey everybody! I'm the brains behind Tasty Tuesdays (Andrew actually wrote that, but I am)! :) If any of you have comments, suggestions - post 'em in the comments! Alright, make sure to check out the links posted in the beginning of this blog. Today's recipe comes from Barry Sears' book Mastering the Zone.

Beefy-Vegetable Stir-Fry
Servings: 2 dinner entrees (4 blocks)

Ingredients (block size):

12 ounces lean ground beef (8 Protein)
2 cups onion, sliced, & halved (2 Carbohydrate)
3/4 cup chickpeas, rinsed & chopped (3 Carbohydrate)
1 1/2 cups red bell pepper, sliced & quartered (1 Carbohydrate)
3 cups cabbage, shredded (1 Carbohydrate)
3 cups mushrooms, sliced (1 Carbohydrate)
2 2/3 teaspoon olive oil, divided (8 Fat)
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1/4 teaspoon Worchestershire sauce
salt & pepper to taste
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce

Method:


In nonstick saute pan, add ground beef, onion, and 2/3 teaspoon oil. Cook ground beef and onion until browned. In another nonstick saute pan, add 2 teaspoons oil and remaining ingredients, and cook until cabbage is tender. When the cabbage is tender, add cooked beef and onions to the cabbage. Simmer entire mixture for 10-15 minutes. Divide mixture between two dinner plates and serve.

Yummy. 'Til next week - have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Awesome, Andrew! Love the Nutritional Guide. Nice work. Is very in line with what I've been working on the last couple weeks with diet.

Sheena - Nice work taking on the Tasty Tuesdays! I've been cooking zone meals a lot lately. I'll send you some recipes/pics of stuff I've tried and approved of. :)
