Tasty Tuesday: Lean and Green

Eating healthy during the summertime can be the easiest thing to do and the hardest thing all at the same time! Think about it. Fresh fruits and vegetables line farmer's markets begging you to buy and indulge, all while the sweltering Alabama heat makes you crave an ice cold treat. (Unfortunately ice cream made with fresh fruit still isn't healthy, but it sure is delicious!)

This can cause a dilemma because while you desire to take in all the great summertime flavors, you also want to keep that bikini body you worked so hard for all winter and spring. We at the Alabama Cattlemen's Association understand the pickle you're in, and we have a great option for you!

Summertime Salads, Topped With Beef


Summer salads are the best. Take those fresh greens and top them with fruit, garden-fresh veggies and even a light vinaigrette made from an acidic summer fruit. But what makes them better is when you take a lean cut of beef, slice it and serve it on top of that bed of greens. Lean beef will help keep that salad lite while providing you with essential vitamins and nutrients needed to maintain a healthy lifestyle and that bikini body! 

While we can't guarantee it will take away those cravings for a sweet summertime treat, we can assure you that it will keep you full and focused without the guilt!
