Steak Fajita Bowl

Let this one-pot wonder sizzle its way into your weeknight rotation. This Steak Fajita Bowl delivers hearty and savory satisfaction with a balanced blend of lean protein, fiber, and essential vitamins and minerals. Made with nutrient-dense peppers, onions, and ancient grains, it's a healthy, and delicious option that reheats easily for leftovers. Here I used some of my favorites from Primal Kitchen and Seeds of Change, but you can easily customize the spices and toppings to your taste.

WHY YOU'LL LOVE THIS MEAL

Nutritional Balance: This bowl combines lean red meat with fiber-rich vegetables and whole grains, making it a heart-healthy option that supports balanced cholesterol levels all around.

Micronutrient Standouts: Each serving is rich in riboflavin, niacin, B5, B6, B12, vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, iron, choline, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, selenium and zinc. These nutrients play a vital role in supporting heart health, immune function, brain health, and red blood cell production.

Flavorful & Versatile: Primal Kitchen Steak Sauce adds a savory, peppery kick without any added sugar, complimenting the hearty flavors of this bowl. Feel free to adjust the seasonings or add your favorite toppings to make it your own.

EASY & CONVENIENT

The prep for this meal is very similar to the Chicken & Grain Power Bowl giving you variety without reinventing the wheel. I love when you can use the same process to create a meal with a completely different taste. Plus you get to try another one of my go-to quick sides, Seeds of Change Ancient Grain Blend microwavable pouches.

PORTION AND BLOOD SUGAR BALANCE

This recipe can be divided into:

  • 4 servings: ~ 40 grams of carbs per serving
  • 3 servings: ~ 55 grams of carbs per serving

Both options fit well into balanced meals for heart health and stable blood sugar levels. Enjoy a flavorful, nutrient-packed steak fajita with a twist. In addition, you keep your wellness goals in check!
