Chris' Muscle Meatloaf
Nutrition Class
 Anyone interested in an extra workout on Saturday Morning?  Let me know!  We will meet in the parling lot of the track at IWU at 8:00 a.m.  Be on time, we won't be staying in the parking lot!!  
 
I know some of you have a very important race Saturday morning.  Know that we are running with you, cheering you on every step of the way!!
 
Greetings!
 
I had a SUPER busy weekend.  I did not get your recipe of the week out this weekend!  Here it is...another one coming from Chris.  He is a lifesaver!  If you liked the protein pancakes, you will love this one!  :)  Chris' Muscle Meatloaf (he came up with the name - no it will not make you bulky!)  We had this last night for dinner with green beans.  It was so good.  I am not usually a big meatloaf fan, but I was happily surprised.  And he cooked, so how could I complain?!?!!  :)
 
I hope that you are all doing well today.  Great job on the workout this morning - Morton girls, be ready...they said it was crazy! 
 
I have heard about the overflowing energy that many you have been experiencing!  That means we are doing something right.  Exercise  increases  energy.  Exercise increases blood flow to the brain which increase memory.  Exercise also decreases the chance of disease.  Keep up the hard work.  I am consistently impressed by you all and how hard you work!  Thank you!

Lean Body Concepts
 
Chris' Muscle Meatloaf 
1 lb. ground beef at least 95% lean - he got the 95% lean ground beef that it on sale through today at the butcher counter of Jewel)
1 c. low-fat cottage cheese
1/2 c. oats (not steel cut, rolled oats)
1 egg
 
That is it, that is all he put in there.  Mix it up bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.  He topped it with some organic ketchup.  YUM!!  Don't get me wrong, it tastes great just like this, but a bit of salt and papper, and maybe some grated onion would make it.  Add your favorite spices, just use this as your base recipe.  About 1/5 of the loaf is a good serving for you.  That will give you plenty of protein for your meal.  Don't worry, you (or your family) will never know that the cottage cheese is in there.
 
Enjoy!
