One Fit Ramadan

It’s the weekend! That means one thing. SLEEP IN! Well that’s usually the plan but my insomniac self who is now used to just basically napping in between Iftar and Sahoor only managed to sleep for an extra hour or two. Still worth it. My plan is to take advantage of that tomorrow as well before the work grind starts again. Not a lot to talk about today but I do have a real treat for Iftar. I hope you enjoy the recipe!

For Sahoor

Speaking of sleep, I slept too much and barely woke up with enough time to make something quick and eat it this morning. Luckily, like I had said in my last post, I had omelette stuff cut up already so I just had my standard 2 egg yoke/4egg white dish. I really didn’t drink a lot of water but I had been hydrating the night before. Oh and yeah that caused me an extra bathroom trip. Anyways, that’s all I had plus an apple.

For Iftar

This dish is called Meatza…pizza but just meat. It’s a combo of ground beef and chicken with various spices. My apologies go out to the vegan community for this recipe. The directions below make about 1.5-2 servings.

• 1 lb ground beef
• 1/2 lb ground chicken
• 1/2 onion
• 1 small tomato
• 1/2 tsp sea salt
• 1/2 tsp chili powder
• 1 green pepper
• 1/4 tsp cumin
• 3 -4 stems of parsley
• 1/2 tsp ground cilantro
• 1 sweet potato, skinned and diced
• 3/4 tsp oregano
• 2 tbsp of hot sauce (If you aren’t great with spices I would lower this mount)
• 2 Tbsp coconut oil

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a food processor, drop in the onion, tomato, salt, chili powder, green pepper, cumin, parsley, and cilantro. Put aside 1/4 of the mixture for the chicken. The rest will be used for the beef.
3. Place the beef into a bowl and mix in the processed items. Then move it to a baking dish and place into the oven. Let it cook for about 10 minutes.
4. While that bakes, heat up a pan and add in the coconut oil. Add in the sweet potato and then place a cover over it to steam. Cook it for about 5 minutes or until it is soft.
5. When the sweet potato begins to soften, add in the chicken and remaining mixture and stir. Add in the hot sauce as well. Cover it until it’s cooked.
6. Once the beef is done, add the chicken/sweet potato mixture to the baking dish.
7. Bake it for a few more minutes and you are done. I dressed it with a banana pepper but that’s optional.
