If you’re like me, you don’t have time for complicated meal prep, but you still want something that’s nutrient-dense, high in protein, and actually tastes great. That’s why this meal is a staple in my routine.
What’s in it?
This meal checks all the boxes: protein, carbs, healthy fats, and flavor. Here’s what you need:
½ lb ground beef (85/15) – Cooked, fat drained 1 cup roasted sweet potatoes – A great carb source that keeps energy levels steady A handful of greens – For fiber and micronutrients Sprinkle of cheese – Just enough for flavor Drizzle of chipotle mayo – Adds a kick without overloading on calories Steak seasoning – Because everything tastes better with it
How to Make It (in 15-20 minutes)
- Roast your sweet potatoes – Dice, toss with avocado oil, and bake at 400°F for 15-20 minutes (or use leftovers from meal prep!).
- Cook the beef – Season, brown in a pan, and drain the fat.
- Assemble – Add greens, top with beef and sweet potatoes, sprinkle cheese, and drizzle with chipotle mayo.
- Enjoy!
