Some of you may have read the article about my weight loss journey (My Journey Losing 250 Pounds Without Surgery Or A Prescription And What I Eat Each Day) and the foods that I ate to lose my weight and eat now to maintain it.
For the most part, I eat mainly boneless skinless chicken breast and fish as my main protein source. As we all know, that can get pretty boring over time.
I was talking to a very close friend about wanting to try some different healthy meats to vary my protein for a little bit, and he came up with a great solution for me to try. He sent me a variety box of healthy and exotic meats.
The box contained Alligator Tenderloins, Elk Steaks, a Bison Chuck Roast, a package of ground Kangaroo and two Lamb Shanks.
I decided to use this wonderful gift and create a challenge to use the different meats for healthy meals and also recipes to use any leftovers up too. No food waste!
I decided to call this challenge the 10-Day Healthy and Exotic Meat Challenge.
I haven’t used most of these proteins before so, most were new to me, but that’s part of the fun (and the challenge)!
Variety is valuable when you’re committed to a long-term weight loss and healthy lifestyle. Chicken does get boring. I’m going to post my recipes using these different proteins right here.Â
Hopefully you’ll see a few that interest you and can work into your own meal plans. Enjoy the variety we all crave! So let’s get this challenge started, are you coming along?
