The Best Weight Loss Cookbook – Over 250 Fat Burning Recipes

Weight Loss Cooking Made Fast, Easy, And Tasty

The biggest challenges I hear from people when they want to lose weight and start eating better is that they either “don’t have time,” or they hate the taste of health foods and don’t know how to cook. While it’s easy for me as a fitness enthusiast who’s been doing this for years to forget about how hard it can be for someone first getting into “dieting,” I also remember how much I hated eating boring bland foods when I first started out. Fortunately, I quickly started piecing together great tasting meals that were easy to make and tasty. I even created my healthy cooking youtube channel to show off some of my favorite fat loss and muscle gain recipes.

But, finding great recipes that are both good for weight loss AND taste good is always a bit of a challenge. Luckily, Dave and Karine have come in and saved the day. They’ve put together what I consider to be the absolute best cookbook and recipe guide for those interested in getting and staying fit. I really wish I had this weight loss cookbook that I’m about to share with you when I first got started.

The Best Bodybuilding Cookbook – Over 200 Muscle Building Recipes

Bodybuilding Cooking Made Tasty and Delicious

I remember when I first got into bodybuilding I would force feed myself bland chicken breasts and broccoli. I would actually bring it in a sack bag to my high school lunch room and proudly display my strict eating habits in front of my friends whom thought I was crazy.

Fast forward a few years, and I’ve since discovered tons of awesome recipes that not only are great for packing on slabs of muscle, but are healthy and tasty too. I even created my youtube channel to show off some of my culinary creations. But, finding new recipes is always a bit of a challenge. Not because recipes are hard to come by, but because bodybuilder friendly recipes are hard to come by.

That’s where Dave Ruel has come in and saved the day. He’s put together what I consider to be the single best “all-in-one” bodybuilding cooking guide for guys like myself who like taste, affordability, and most of all convenience. Since most of the recipes are made stupid simple for the average guy, you won’t find you have to be a great chef to start making great tasting high protein muscle gain meals.

Here is an awesome meatloaf recipe courtesy of Dave to kickstart your bodybuilding chef skills.

How To Make Spinach Taste Good – Tasty Raw Salad Greens Recipe

Getting Raw Greens To Taste Great

I have a confession… I HATE raw dark leafy greens like spinach. Despite their numerous health benefits, I had the hardest time finding a way to make greens like spinach taste good.

If I decided to cook spinach, I’d end up with a slimy nasty mess. And if I kept it raw and made a big salad, it was time consuming, boring, and something I would have to force myself to eat.

So what’s a health fanatic to do? Well, I developed a super ninja tactic that turns any leafy green like spinach into a downright delicious meal, all in about a minute. Using this technique, I’ve unlocked the secret of how to make spinach taste great and I actually look forward to chowing down on a bunch of greens.

Granted, I may just be weird for not liking spinach and perhaps you love raw greens. But either way, when you learn how to make any healthy food like spinach taste better, you’re far more likely to eat healthier on a regular basis.

But before we get to the recipe, let’s cover briefly why you should be making an effort to get a crap-ton more dark greens and spinach into your diet.

Health Benefits of Spinach and Dark Leafy Greens

Chlorophyll – Chlorophyll, the pigment that give greens their green color, is a wonder compound all in its own. Chlorophyll can increase the production and quality of red blood cells, has been associated with reduction in cancer, it prevents free radical damage (aging), detoxifies heavy metals, helps fight infection, provides magnesium, and does more than could possibly be listed here. All-in-all, eat more greens!

Cancer Protective – The abundant flavonoids in spinach have been linked to protecting against cancer. Leafy greens are some of the most powerful cancer fighting foods on the planet.

Nutrient Dense – Spinach and other leafy greens are constantly ranked as some of the most nutrient dense foods on the planet. That means you get a lot of nutrition without a lot of calories. This is particularly important for fat loss as the fiber in these greens can fill you up while the vitamins and minerals can nourish you so you don’t feel deprived even if you’re eating less calories.

Bone Strength – Spinach is one of the richest sources of vitamin K which works to keep the bones strong.

Quick and Easy Sixty Second Spinach Salad Recipe

See video above for the basic run-down of how to make the salad.

The basic recipe is as follows:

Ingredients:

6-8oz of leafy greens, spinach was used in this video
1/2 teaspoon of unrefined salt
Toppings of choice (dried fruit, berries, garlic, chopped cucumber, etc.)
Dressing of choice (coconut oil, extra virgin olive oil, vinegar, dried spices, salsa, etc.)

Directions:

1. Add a pinch of salt to spinach and crush down with your hands.

2. Add toppings as desired. In the video, I use salsa, dried “Italian spices,” and a little bit of curry powder.

3. Mix the wet toppings like the salsa with the spinach and enjoy!

This recipe is great not only because it improves the flavor of the spinach, but also because it condenses it down into a much smaller size making it easy to eat quickly. Now you can easily get in 8 – 16 ounces of spinach in a single sitting or all in a matter of about 5 minutes. Try to eat a regular spinach salad with a pound of spinach and see how long it takes you!

Variations of The Sixty Second Salad

1. Use Kale, Romaine Lettuce, or any other dark leafy green in place of spinach.

2. Add coconut oil for enhanced fat loss.

3. Use healthy homemade sauces like greek yoghurt combined with onion soup mix for a “onion spinach dip.”

4. Get creative and add in whatever spices, flavorings, and sauces you can think of.
