Put strawberries, fat-free Greek yogurt, almonds, broccoli, some green tea, and cannellini beans in the blender. Sprinkle some cinnamon on top and you got yourself an affordable, amazingly delicious, and nutritious breakfast!

The strawberries are rich in vitamin C and fiber. Broccoli and cinnamon are natural metabolism boosters. Yogurt has protein and calcium. Almond, yogurt and cannellini beans have zinc in them which suppress appetite. Almonds also are high in HEALTHY fats, which will also control your appetite along with improving your overall health.

  1. Chocolate Dipped Banana Bites

 

Bananas are a natural source of energy that burn calories and make you feel less hungry. Dark chocolate is good for the metabolism and calming sweet cravings. The combination of the two makes a very affordable fat burning recipe.

Simply peel and cut one banana into bite sized chunks. Put dark chocolate chips in a microwave supported bowl. Heat them for 1 to 2 minutes. Pour melted chocolate over bananas, or dip the bananas.

Enjoy!

Just remember, although dark chocolate is actually healthy for you, you still must have it in moderation due to the high calorie and fat content.

 

  1. Overnight Oats

 

Take half a cup of rolled oats, two tablespoon slivered almonds, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, half a cup of coconut milk, half a tablespoon of maple syrup, one tablespoon chia seeds, and mix them all very well in a container. Put it in the fridge overnight. Eat this refreshing fat burning oat recipe the next morning.

You can also add your favorite fruits which are rich in Vitamin C.

This meal helps in beating belly bloat, boosts your metabolism, controls hunger, and improves your digestion system!

  1. Grilled Chicken Cutlets with Summer Succotash

 

Did your mouth just water after reading that title? I thought so!

Chicken can burn fat… if you of course are eating lean chicken and it’s cooked healthily (baked, grilled, etc.). Summer succotash is low in cholesterol, has no fat, and is high in fiber. This paleo recipe is outstanding for fighting against fat and takes only 5 minute to cook. Plus, it’s very filling. In fact, a meal like this can actually help you burn up to an extra 300 calories a day… just by eating it!

 

  1. Burrito Bowl

 

Craving Mexican food? Making your own healthy burrito bowl can satisfy those cravings, fill you up, it’s super healthy, very fast to make, and undeniably delicious!

With delicious and fat burning ingredients such as brown rice, cilantro, black beans, shredded chicken breast, avocado, and fat-free greek yogurt (instead of sour cream), you can’t go wrong!

 

  1. Grilled Turkey Burgers & Sweet Potato Fries

 

A lean protein turkey burger is a delicious way to satisfy your burger craving… and melt away fat at the same time.

It uses turkey, a natural source of lean protein, which makes you feel fuller for a long period of time. The amino acid in turkey acts as a building block for muscles… which as long as you are building lean muscle, it will help you recover quicker, and with proper recovery, you’ll melt fat away lightning fast!

Take a bowl, mix garlic, cumin, lean ground turkey, and paprika. Roll the mixture into patties and sprinkle some sea salt and pepper over it. Grill it on medium heat. Cook both sides well. Put it inside buns with sprouted grains, top it with mustard (it tastes AMAZING with spicy mustard), and that’s it.

One more thing you can include with your turkey burgers to really help satisfy that burger and fries craving is to make some sweet potato fries!

Simply slice a sweet potato into long thin slices, lightly coat the slices with olive oil, place them on baking sheet with parchment paper, pop it in the oven at a high temperature (450 degrees) for about 20 minutes, sprinkle with sea salt, and just like that, you got yourself an amazing meal!
