Description

A nutrient-dense power bowl featuring the top metabolism-boosting foods. Packed with protein, healthy fats, and thermogenic spices.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 oz lean chicken breast (diced)
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup cooked lentils
  • 2 eggs (hard-boiled, halved)
  • 1/4 cup almonds (roughly chopped)
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 cup cooked brown rice
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (for dressing)

Instructions

  1. Heat coconut oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Season chicken with cayenne pepper and cook for 6-7 minutes until done.
  3. Steam broccoli for 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
  4. Divide brown rice between two bowls.
  5. Top with chicken, lentils, broccoli, and halved eggs.
  6. Add a dollop of Greek yogurt and sprinkle with almonds.
  7. Drizzle with apple cider vinegar as dressing.

Notes

Each serving provides approximately 45g protein from combined chicken, eggs, lentils, yogurt, and almonds. The cayenne pepper and green tea (drink alongside) both contain thermogenic compounds that temporarily increase metabolic rate.
