| This is an awesome recipe that is healthy, filling and full of all the good stuff without all the useless calories! Enjoy!
Here are the ingredients:
1 can (16oz) whole green beans, drained 1 can (15oz) garbanzo beans, drained 1 can (15oz) kidney beans, drained 2 grilled chicken breast, chopped 1 can (12oz) whole-kernel corn, drained 1 medium red onion, chopped 1 cup fat-free French dressing
Cook and chop the chicken and then mix the beans, corn, onion, and chicken together. Pour in the 1 cup of fat-free French Dressing and you are finished. You now have an excellent meal that is portable and can be eaten cold or hot. It tastes great both ways.
You might be wondering why this is a great fat loss meal. It is because you are eating a good amount of protein which provides fullness and has a high Thermic Effect Factor. A high Thermic Effect means that it requires more calories to used for digestion than other nutrients such as carbs and fat.
So your net calorie intake is lower. This meal also provides a great source of fiber which again provides satiey and fullness as well as slow down the digestion process so your insulin levels stay controlled. Controlling your insulin level is key to fat loss. | |
