Healthy Eating With Organic Beef And Pork

By Laura Roberts


There are many diet plans from which to choose but not every product on the market is the best choice for every body type. Although some people tend to believe that eating only vegetables and grains is the only solution for weight loss, the opposite tends to be true for many. As long as diets are balanced and reasonable portions are consumed, adding organic beef and pork to any meal is a good idea.

While getting full flavor is not impossible, getting around the dryness may take some practice. Like most lean meat, this type of meat does not cook the same way as marbled meat. This can be a challenge for those who like their beef cooked well because it can take on a jerky consistency when cooked over high heat.

If a person does not care to add extra salt or sodium to their meat during the preparation phase, an alternative would be to cover and marinate in olive oil. Although extra virgin olive oil provides the most nutrients, it also tends to burn foods cooked over an open flame. The best choice is pure olive oil or any oil that can withstand high heat levels.

For those who dread the seasoning process, marinades can be the ideal kitchen companion. With the use of small sealed containers or freezer bags, this can be added to meat before it goes into the freezer. When it comes time to cook, just place in a heated pan, cover, and let cook for 10-15 minutes on medium heat.

Portion sizes make a big difference when it comes to cooking. Large cuts weighing more than a pound may benefit from cooking in a preheated oven for about half an hour before placing on the grill. Cover in foil or place inside a large cooking dish with a lid so the texture will remain moist while it bakes. To avoid a gummy texture, make sure the oven temperature is at medium heat.

This garlic herb blend can be used with whole or ground meats, as well as vegetables that double as entrees, like portobello mushrooms or potatoes. It can also be frozen using an ice cube tray and used for future recipes. Having this option is ideal for quick meal fixes since it will retain its flavor if not frozen for more than six months.

Because this blend also contains a little oil, it can act as a lubricant for meat that is being cooked well. Canola and pure or virgin olive oil are good choices for roasting garlic because they have little to no saturated fat. Grapeseed is also a great choice for those who need to watch their blood pressure or cholesterol levels.

Grilling natural or organic meat products is one of the best ways to cook for diet planning. Experts recommend lean beef, pork, and poultry for weight loss and reducing blood pressure levels. When eaten in moderation, it can be a nice change from vegetables and grains as an entree.
