Protein First Meals: Italian-ish Hamburger

This recipe is protein-heavy and gluten-free.

Add carbs if you like; it would go over ½ cup of prepared instant rice, tossed with pasta (a cooked and drained packet of ramen even – no seasoning packet added), or on tortillas.

Depending on your taste, you can use low-sodium broth powder or full-sodium. A pinch of sea salt can be good to add.

The sauce is thin at first but thickens upon sitting. The broth in the sauce is good for rehydrating on hot days.

Italian-ish Hamburger

Pack in a quart freezer or sandwich bag:

FBC Method:

Place the freezer bag in an FBC Cozy, add ¾ cup of water, and stir well. Seal the bag and let it sit for 15 minutes.

Stir and enjoy.

One Pot Method:

In a small pot, bring ¾ cup water to a boil and add the dry ingredients. Stir, cover, and remove the pot from the stove. Let sit for 15 minutes.

In cool weather or at higher altitudes, insulate in a pot cozy.

Stir and enjoy.

Serves 1.
