What's something other than a boring chicken breast I can make for dinner that is high in protein and low in carbs.... Anyone? I have all sorts of meat at my disposal... All cuts of beef, pork and lamb as well as chicken and fish. Thanks!

    Tonight's dinner for me will be rib eye, asparagus and sweet potatoes. I'll cook my rib eye in coconut oil, grass fed butter and season the meat with whatever I have at home.

    Awesome thanks! We eat steak a lot so that's another thing I'm kind of over. I know, first world problems.

    When the kids complain about boring chicken breast, give them tofu.

    Salmon. I make foil pockets, season it with Himalayan salt and black pepper and lemon juice. Put it in a 350 oven for about 17 minutes. I pair it a lot with shaved Brussels sprouts that I sauté in olive oil with black pepper and garlic salt-or fresh garlic chopped. My boys love salmon. They also love spiralized zucchini. I made an amazing red coconut curry sauce to put on it. Also made an awesome shrimp scampi to put over it. Go on Pinterest!!!!!!

    Can of Rotel (I use the hot)
    Cubed up meat (add amount per taste or needs)
    Liquid smoke to taste

    Cook in skillet until the liquid is mostly gone stirring occasionally. Slide everything to one side of pan to make room for 3-4 eggs to scramble. Mix everything together when the eggs are done.

    This makes a mountain of food on a plate, but it's only 500-600 calories. Cut the recipe down down or save leftovers for breakfast if you need less calories. It's super easy and I've made this with all types of meat
