QUICK SAUTEED ASPARAGUS - HCG FRIENDLY



Quick Sauteed Asparagus - Hcg Friendly image

A quick, flavorful recipe I came up with that fits into the Dr. Simeons Hcg Protocol during VLCD phase. Add spices to taste. **Trimming the Asparagus: Just hold each end and snapping it -- it will naturally break off the tough part. You keep the flower end for cooking (and should have nice longer spears). If you like, the "tough" ends can be kept to be used in vegetable stock or for other used later. Saw this on Cook Yourself thin!

Categories     Meat

Time 45m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil (see note below if following oil-free protocol) or 1 teaspoon extra virgin coconut oil (see note below if following oil-free protocol)
100 g extra lean ground beef
1 tablespoon onion, finely chopped
1 cup tomatoes, quartered
2 garlic cloves, quartered
1 pinch garlic powder
1 pinch onion powder
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1 pinch oregano
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1 dash sea salt
1 dash pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oil or broth in large, deep skillet. Fry ground beef and onions until cooked through.
  • In the meantime, blend tomatoes and garlic in food processor or blender until liquefied. Pour into skillet, over fried ground beef and onions.

QUICK CIDER VINEGAR DRESSING



Quick Cider Vinegar Dressing image

This is a salad dressing I came up with while following Dr. Simeons HCG Protocol. It is "legal" meaning it complies with all aspects of VLCD for those following the protocol. Anyone on this plan knows the VLCD phase is restrictive and can get boring - so spices are our friends! Great on spinach, lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, onions - you name it. Add your protein and away you go! You can really vary your flavor depending on the combination of spices you use - this is a basic grouping...I add/adjust depending on the flavors I crave when. I love this with grilled shrimp to make my salad...on cucumbers .... with grilled chicken. Even with lettuce and a grilled burger (4% Laura's lean beef in a lettuce wrap) and a side salad.
