The ultimate fast, high protein dinner recipe, flank steak is rubbed with a coffee-infused dry spice mixture then grilled or broiled to juicy perfection.
There is no way around it: I am a meat lover. I physically crave protein, fat, and salt and know that’s what my body needs to fuel my intense daily workouts and busy days as a working mom of little ones.
While some people yearn for bread, carbs, and sugar, I dream of juicy steak, plump shrimp, and salmon sashimi. You show me a meat and cheese platter and I’m a happy girl.
When it comes to serving high protein, low carb meals for my family, there is nothing quite like lean cuts of meat.
In fact, whenever I make flank steak I like to make extra to use throughout the week in sandwiches, salads, tacos, and more. Spoiler alert: I may have an idea for turning this beautiful steak into tacos – coming soon!
