Recipe of the Day: Protein-Packed Chili Dog Recipe |
For a protein-packed twist on a classic, start by grilling your favorite turkey or chicken sausage, then pile on a hearty serving of homemade chili — using lean ground beef, kidney beans, diced tomatoes, and plenty of spices. Spoon the chili over your sausage, sprinkle with shredded cheese, and add a dollop of Greek yogurt instead of sour cream for a creamy, protein-boosted finish. Serve it all on a whole-wheat bun, and you've got a chili dog that’s as strong as your gains. |
