These are the details about my first ‘Clean’ meal:

I went to the market and purchased some inexpensive but nutritionally dense food.  I ended up getting frozen mixed vegetables along with some frozen ground turkey.  I also purchased some Old Bay Seasoning along with some Old Bay Blackened Seasoning.

I thawed out the turkey and seasoned it with the original old bay seasoning.  I wasn’t sure how much to season it with so I stayed on the conservative side and put small amount on the meat and mixed it in:

I divided the 16 ounces into 3 parts, approximately 5.3 ounces a piece and put them on the grill.  As they were grilling, I seasoned one side with the blackened seasoning:

I didn’t take the pic because I had no time, but I drained the fat out of the pan.  There was a pretty good amount of fat so I’m sure I lessened the fat content by doing so.

I finished with 3 cooked turkey patties.  I steamed a cup of frozen mixed vegetables and concluded with the following dish:

Here are the nutritional stats, assuming that I didn’t pour out the fat:

Total Calories (patty and veggies) = 320 + 25 = 345 kcal

Protein = 25.3 + 1 = 26.3 grams

Carbs = 4 grams (from veggies)

Fat = 22.6 grams (assuming I didn’t pour the fat out of the pan)

I’m sure I reduced the amount of fat by pouring it out of the pan.  A conservative assumption would be a reduction of about 25% of the fat, resulting in a fat content of about 17 grams.

Fiber = 1 gram

Now I have 2 more patties to eat for the next two meals.  I plan to make a meal replacement shake for dinner.

Hope this keeps up,

DAVE
