Part 2 of my meat question :)?

Question

Ok, so meat is a great source of protein which my fiance needs since he is lifting and working out. Got it!

Now, which meats would be healthiest for him (or anyone) to eat. Does it matter how it's prepared?

Ok, I'm not a meat eater myself so could you please tell me what red meats are and white meats and so on? Thanks

Answer 1

Chicken and turkey are white meats. You can grill them, outside or on a George Foreman grill. You can fry them in some olive oil (olive oil is a healthy fat, and we all need some healthy fat in our diet) or bake them in the oven or microwave.
Pork is a white meat. Some cuts are fatty, but anymore pork is just as lean as chicken. You can fry it in olive oil, grill it, fix in a crock pot, bake it. There are some great pork fillet roasts that are already seasoned in your local grocery store that are lean and really tasty.
I don't eat beef, so can only tell you that you should find lean cuts. Don't get ground beef; it's full of fat, even if it says it's very lean. You can also grill, roast, bake beef steaks, roasts.

Don't forget fish. Salmon steaks, tuna steaks, white fish..are all full of protein and good.

Other sources of protein: eggs, peanut butter (get reduced fat), a bean and a grain together (dried beans like baked beans), low fat cheese, skim or 1% milk, low or fat free yogurt.

The biggest thing to remember is you should be a label reader. Don't eat products that contain trans fats (partially hydrogenated oils). Watch frozen dinners...some of them contain humungous amounts of fat. Eat lots of fruits, veggies, dark green leafy salads, whole grains (read the labels), and some healthy fats like almonds, walnuts, olive oil.

Eat 3 moderate meals a day and 2 healthy snacks, to keep your blood glucose and metabolism at a steady level. Don't think you have to be full after a meal. Eat slowly so you don't over eat before your stomach signals that it's had enough.

Drink at least 8 cups of fluids a day. Watch the alcohol; it has calories and will easily and quickly pile on the pounds.

Answer 2

Red meats - Grilled
Oily Fish - Salmon & Tuna - Grilled.
You are keeping all the Protien and Irons and essential Fatty acids without frying (adding fats) or even BBQ when you are burning some meats the "char" on BBQ or char grilled meats has been rumoured to be carcenogenic.

Answer 3

Chicken, fish, turkey, even lean beef is good.

Have it properly cooked because bacteria that feed on protein don't care if the protein comes from raw meat or human tissue. That is why salmonella is so lethal.

However, avoid deep frying. It adds a lot of grease which is fattening and makes harder to digest the protein.

Answer 4

If you prepare dinner frozen meat, the skin chefs speedily whilst the within stays uncooked and even frozen, relying at the form of meat and its thickness. Meatballs are truly handy. Get approximately a pound of flooring meat. (Beef is what conventional meatballs are made from.) Add a few garlic vigor, oregano, and basil, approximately a million teaspoon of every. Mash all of it in conjunction with your blank fingers to combination the seasonings into the beef. Pour slightly oil (olive, vegetable, canola, does not topic) right into a skillet, simply sufficient to coat the backside. (It'll unfold while hot, so go away room.) A significant skillet takes perhaps a tablespoon. Roll the beef into meatballs approximately a million.five inches throughout. Remember, they are going to lessen. When they are all rolled, positioned them into the skillet and brown on each side over medium warmth. Shaking the pan and utilizing a spatula cautiously will aid them keep entire as you rotate them to brown each side. If a couple of holiday, do not fear approximately it. Drain any fats and discard it. Don't pour it down a sink; it can result in clogged drains. When there is not any obvious crimson or crimson to your meatballs, upload your sauce to the skillet and begin making your pasta in line with the kit instructional materials. Simmer sauce and meatballs till the meatballs are cooked by way of (perhaps 10 mins), then minimize warmth to low and stir on occasion till your pasta's cooked and your equipped to consume. Enjoy!

Answer 5

white meat is, however, we also need red meat like beef. But it has to be lean. Yes it does matter how the meat is prepared. Grilled or Broiled meat is the best.

Answer 6

Chicken breast or Turkey Breast. If you are going for Red Meat make sure it is round or chuck cut and atleast 93% lean. Never fry, grilling can be good, boiling is good. I usually grill my chicken.
