When you are on your fitness journey and trying your best to stay in a calorie deficit, it can be challenging not to go off plan when you have fast food cravings. I want you all to create your fast food cravings at home! Taco Bell's menu is great for making copycat versions at home.
Lean Ground Beef For Taco Bell's Beef Recipes
Use 96/97 lean beef for your recipe swaps for extremely lean recipes. I find that Laura's 92% is the perfect balance between flavor and good macros.
Cooking Methods
You can grill, bake, slow/ pressure-cook, or pan-sear your proteins! The biggest thing is using a food scale and accounting for all oils and sauces used!
This grilled flank steak was amazing in my copycat Steak Quesarito meal.
You don't have to go cold turkey! Make your favorite menu items at home!
Food Scale
Once again, don't go cold turkey! Use a food scale to weigh out your ingredients!
If you need a calorie tracker, check out my online coaching plans! A calorie tracker is included in all plans!
I offer digital downloads on my website and Etsy as well! I recently created a subscription under my plans and pricing page. With my new plan, you will have access to exclusive recipe blogs, videos on the media page, and digital downloads and e-books! This is a lifetime membership so I will update the group with new and updated recipes every month. On my fitness app, I include the macros. That's the main difference between the two services.
Food and fitness go hand in hand. I want to continue to grow in both industries. I understand that not everyone is into tracking calories or exercising, but everyone loves a good meal or snack! I will continue to share helpful budget, macro-friendly, and delicious recipe content to all audiences! I will add a fast food made at home playlist to my Facebook and YouTube accounts! Don't make food restrictions, make your favorite restaurants like Taco Bell at home!
