10 MINUTE CHILI VERDE - P2 and P3


This recipe is a fantastic break from things such is P2 Chili.   Make a big batch and split it equally based on the number of portions of ground beef you added.

Makes 4 Servings
16 oz ground beef *  Use 95% or 96% lean for P2  or 85% lean for P3(grass fed if possible)
1 28 oz can diced organic tomatoes (or 5-6 Roma diced)
2 cups low sodium organic beef or chicken broth
1 1/2 packets stevia or 1 teaspoon
1 tablespoon cumin
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
2 tablespoons chili powder
Chili flakes to taste (spicy 1 - 1 1/2 teaspoons)
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 lb. fresh baby spinach

1)Brown beef in medium high pan for 3-5 minutes. Use a paper towel to pat out excess fat.
2)Add all spices and 1/2 salt
3)Add tomatoes, broth and stevia, stir bottom of pan. Bring to boil, then reduce heat to low for 3-4 minutes.
4)Pick stems off spinach (optional). I do this as I'm adding it to the chili.
Add spinach a couple cups at a time. Stir to incorporate. Just wilt, do not cook.
Turn off heat and serve!

Each serving is 280 calories with chicken broth and 85% lean beef. Should you use 95% lean beef, each serving is 240 calories! Packed with flavor and a very sustaining meal! 


In P3, garnish with fresh cilantro, avocado and sour cream.
Enjoy!

7-DAY DIET WEIGHT LOSS SOUP (WONDER SOUP!)


 7-DAY DIET WEIGHT LOSS SOUP (WONDER SOUP!)

INGREDIENTS
  ½ head of cabbage, chopped
1 cup celery, diced
1 cup white or yellow onion, diced
1 cup carrots, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
2-3 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups chicken broth
14 oz can basil, oregano, garlic diced tomatoes
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon basil
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
few shakes of black pepper
½ teaspoon salt (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add celery, onions, bell peppers, and carrots.
Saute until slightly tender.
Stir in garlic.
Pour in chicken broth.
Stir in tomatoes and cabbage.
Bring to a boil and then reduce heat.
Cook until cabbage is tender.
Stir in oregano, basil, red pepper flakes, black pepper and salt (if using)
Taste broth and adjust seasoning if needed.

So here is a brief overview of the 7 Day Cabbage Soup diet plan.

Remember: This diet should only be followed for 7 days at a time, with at least two weeks in between.

Day One: Fruit: Eat all of the fruit you want (except bananas). Eat only your soup and the fruit for the first day. For drinks- unsweetened teas, cranberry juice and water. (I had coffee, no cream or sugar).

Day Two: Vegetables: Eat until you are stuffed will all fresh, raw or cooked vegetables of your choice. Try to eat leafy green vegetables and stay away from dry beans, peas and corn. Eat all the vegetables you want along with your soup. At dinner, reward yourself with a big baked potato with butter. Do not eat fruit today.

Day Three: Mix Days One and Two: Eat all the soup, fruits and vegetables you want. No Baked Potato.

Day Four: Bananas and Skim Milk: Eat as many as eight bananas and drink as many glasses of skim milk as you would like on this day, along with your soup. This day is supposed to lessen your desire for sweets.

Day Five: Beef or Chicken And Tomatoes: Ten to twenty ounces of beef and up to six fresh tomatoes. Drink at least 6 to 8 glasses of water this day to wash the uric acid from your body. Eat your soup at least once this day. You may eat broiled or baked chicken instead of beef (but absolutely no skin-on chicken). If you prefer, you can substitute broiled fish for beef on one of the beef days (but not both).

Day Six: Beef and Vegetables: Eat to your heart’s content beef or skinless chicken and vegetables this day. You can have 2 or 3 steaks if you like, with leafy green vegetables. No Baked Potato. Eat your soup at least once.

Day Seven: Brown rice, unsweetened fruit juices and vegetables: Again stuff, stuff, stuff yourself. Be sure to eat your soup at least once this day.

Stick With The Cabbage Soup Diet For 7 Days…And Look Amazing Later, Too!

Be sure to eat your soup at least once to day.

No bread, alcohol, or carbonated beverages, not even diet soda.
