Here’s a burger for those who want some meaty goodness but are watching their waistlines. The mouth-watering deliciousness of this recipe is hard to beat. However to get the low fat benefits makes sure to use very lean ground turkey: 95-99% lean. If you choose 80/20 (or greater fat content) ground turkey, you’re packing more calories from fat than you may think. In fact, 80/20 turkey is not as healthy as 90/10 ground beef when you compare calorie and fat content.

Which brings us to our last recipe which will make it very clear we haven’t forgotten about the appeal of grilled beef.

Whether you call it London broil or flank steak, it can be a delicious cut of meat, especially grilled. But–and this is very important–it MUST be marinated to bring out its full flavor and tenderness, and that marinade must be acidic. THIS marinade is perfection: I use it for parties and for weeknights.

Bonus! London broil is one of the more economical and calorie friendly steaks. Four ounces comes in around 190 calories. Your taste buds, waistline, and wallet win!

So there you have it. Three recipes to delight and satisfy.
