Use hummus as a base for extra protein in your bowl

I recently got into powerlifting.get enough protein‘ is not what it used to be.I can’t and won’t resist protein shakes. Smoothies, or any drink other than Diet Coke, by itself in the first place, the powder burns me out.My new motto is ‘you have to eat meat to make meat’, but meat itself is not a ‘proper diet’.

But when you put that meat in a bowl with a few other carefully selected ingredients, you have something that society accepts as a main dish. and sprinkled with just the right amount of vegetables and other plant parts. base, that’s what i’m sayingaIt’s really good.

I didn’t invent the hummus bowl.You can find several versions online and they are all follow the same basics Format: Spread a thick layer of hummus, add your favorite animal protein (or tofu, seitan, etc.) and complement with veggies. You can, of course, add grains, or a side of pita, or any other carbs you like, but the extra fiber and protein from the hummus gives you extra filling (and tastes so good. Khums).

How to make a hummus bowl

First, you need hummus. You can make your own or buy a tub. I currently use store bought roasted garlic hummus. Place half a cup of hummus and smear it in an aesthetically pleasing way.

Then select your protein.Chicken, beef, lamb, shrimp and roasted salmon are all good choices, but cured salmon, smoked salmon, raw salmon and tofu (specifically tofu puff). Gorgeous preserved tuna may also be good.

Add some vegetables—Make sure there are at least two, one of which is crunchy or crunchy Avoid overly mushy bowl. If you want a third plant part, choose pickles, to increase acidity.

For finishing, think about the balance of flavor and texture. Add a bit of crumbly cheese such as feta, chevre or blue for extra saltiness and body. Keep it fresh with herbs like basil, chives, parsley, and coriander.

Finally, don’t forget acidThe hummus and meat are very rich, and the veggies help balance it out, but lemon juice, vinegar, or pickle brineHummus is like a sauce itself, so you don’t need a real vinaigrette, but a squeeze of lemon or lime. Alternatively, a splash of pure vinegar or salt water will bring balance to the bowl. Work to build your strong muscles. (At least, that’s what I’d like to imagine happening.)
