Muscle Building foods does NOT have to be boring…I guarantee, try this out and you will have your proof
Today I’m showing you how to prepare quick and easy Mini Muscle Meat Loaves.
As you will see, it’s a very simple recipe that only requires about 4-5 minutes of prep time and clean-up time is about 2 minutes (and we all know how important it is to have a fast clean-up time ).
That recipe is perfect for any meal of the day (low in carbs) and also makes a great snack.
You can also cook a few batches and freeze them, that’s what I do so I always have some on hand when I’m in a rush and don’t have time to prepare anything, ready in about 4 minutes in the microwave (from frozen to ready to eat).

I used to be addicted to protein bars, eating 2-3 bars a day thinking they were good for me just because they were called “Protein Bars”… I would go for anything that had a lot of protein and tasted good.
Then, as I kicked my training up a notch, I realized I had to kill this fetish, a pretty expansive one too as a protein bar costs about $5… I had to stop eating these “candy bars with protein” but I still needed convenient access to healthy protein. This is when I decided to create the perfect homemade protein bar. One that had all the good stuff and none of the bad.
I wanted them to be healthy but cheap to make…. Here’s the result!They are damn good tasting and can be made in under 5 minutes… Enjoy!
(This one one of the many protein bar recipes I have for you in my Anabolic Cooking Cookbook).
