Here's an easy all-purpose mix you can make at the beginning of the week and use in most anything. You can put it in peppers for a quick stuffed pepper, or add an egg or two for a speedy breakfast, top mushrooms with it, make lettuce wraps, top a salad... and so much more!
Packed full of athlete-friendly veggies, this power protein mix will fill you up
while helping you nurture those hard earned muscles.
In the photo here, I added 2 eggs and brown rice to make a muscle-building
breakfast post-workout.
Power Protein & Veggie Mix
makes 8 servings (based on 4 oz chicken per serving)
makes 5 servings (based on 6 oz chicken per serving)
INGREDIENTS
2 lb ground chicken breast, raw
1 zucchini
1 package baby bella crimini (brown) mushrooms
1 bell pepper (any color or combination of colors)
1 small onion (*optional)
Mrs Dash - any flavor
Cooking oil spray
DIRECTIONS
Wash all vegetables.
In a food processor (or use a grater) shred the zucchini, mushrooms, and pepper.
Dice onion.
Blend together with raw ground chicken.
Spray a large skillet with oil, and cook mixture over medium high heat,
seasoning with Mrs Dash to taste.
When cooked through, drain off liquid (zucchini and mushrooms have a high water
content, and as they cook they'll release it).
Allow to cool, then store until needed.
