I was talking with my accountant yesterday and she had mentioned that had gone to my blog and pulled off my Grilled Chicken and Bean Salad Recipe a few weeks ago and loved it. 

I asked what she liked about it and she mentioned that it was filling and tasted great without useless calories. 

She then proceeded to mention that last week she gave it to a few guys and girls in her Spinning class because she liked it so much.  On Monday one of the guys thanked her again for the recipe and has made it 3 times already because he likes it so much.

So I wanted to make sure that you got the recipe as well and hopefully you will enjoy it just as much.  It really packs a punch in regards to burning fat as you will see below.

Here are the ingredients:

1 can (16oz) whole green beans, drained
1 can (15oz) garbanzo beans, drained
1 can (15oz) kidney beans, drained
2 grilled chicken breast, chopped
1 can (12oz) whole-kernel corn, drained
1 medium red onion, chopped
1 cup fat-free French dressing

Cook and chop the chicken and then mix the beans, corn, onion, and chicken together.  Pour in the 1 cup of fat-free French Dressing and you are finished.  You now have an excellent meal that is portable and can be eaten cold or hot.  It tastes great both ways. 

You might be wondering why this is a great fat loss meal.  It is because you are eating a good amount of protein which provides fullness and has a high Thermic Effect Factor.  A high Thermic Effect means that it requires more calories to used for digestion than other nutrients such as carbs and fat.  So your net calorie intake is lower.  This meal also provides a great source of fiber which again provides satiey and fullness as well as slow down the digestion process so your insulin levels stay controlled.  Controlling your insulin level is key to fat loss. 

Send me your comments after you make this and let me know what you think.
