Opt for lean cuts such as sirloin, flank steak, or tenderloin. These cuts are lower in saturated fats while still providing high-quality protein.
Grill the steak instead of pan-frying or deep-frying to minimize added fats. Season it with herbs, garlic, and a touch of olive oil for flavor.
Swap out a regular baked potato for a sweet potato. Sweet potatoes are rich in fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants, making them a healthier choice.
Top your baked potato with a variety of vegetables such as steamed broccoli, grilled peppers, or sautéed spinach. Vegetables add color, texture, and essential nutrients.
Instead of sour cream, use plain Greek yogurt as a topping for your baked potato. It’s lower in calories and fat while providing protein and probiotics.
Dress your salad or vegetables with a light vinaigrette made from olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs. This adds flavor without excess calories.
Serve grilled corn on the cob as a side dish. It’s delicious and adds a touch of sweetness without additional fats.
Pay attention to portion sizes for both the steak and potato. A healthy serving of meat is about the size of a deck of cards, and for potatoes, aim for a medium-sized one.
Stay hydrated with water or herbal tea during your meal. It helps digestion and keeps you feeling refreshed.
