So, what\u2019s for breakfast? Hopes and dreams for a co-worker to bring something delicious to share with the office? Bu\u2026 wha\u2026 that\u2019s\u2026 not even edible. Cut that out, you.<\/p>\n
Breakfast not only provides us with the energy we need to get to lunchtime, if not longer, it also helps squelch the munchies. Even if all you have time for is a thermos of coffee and a handheld, carb-laden object smeared with peanut butter or low-fat cream cheese or some other spread that fools you into thinking you\u2019re actually being a bit healthier, go for it. (And don\u2019t be ashamed. We all do it.)<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, if you\u2019re a card-carrying Carbivore, we have some bad news: some breakfasts are, indeed, better than others. But don\u2019t blame us\u2026<\/p>\n
Studies have shown that enjoying a breakfast containing 24 to 35 grams of protein \u2014 4 to 6 eggs \u2014 can help support a more stable blood sugar throughout your body throughout the day. This, in turn, helps you feel satiated longer as well as curbs those mid-morning munchies because when your blood sugar dips, you start to dip\u2026 into your snack drawer.<\/p>\n
Greek yogurt, peanut butter, cottage cheese, the aforementioned eggs\u00a0\u2014 these are all fabulous sources of protein, but if you want to get it right from the source and have a healthy breakfast guaranteed to make your co-workers and neighbors quiver with jealousy\u2026<\/p>\n
All cards on the table, most any meat source will pack on the protein, but steak<\/a>\u2026\u00a0that\u2019s our jam. We all know that steak is delicious, but have you given thought to how much protein is in each cut? With that target of 24 to 35 grams of protein in mind, let\u2019s research a handful of some of our more popular cuts. (Note: you can also find the nutritional facts for our steaks on their individual product page. You know, just in case you decide to do a little shopping\u2026)<\/p>\n 5 oz. Filet Mignon<\/a> \u2013 25g<\/strong><\/p>\n 6 oz. Top Sirloin<\/a> \u2013 36g<\/strong><\/p>\n 8 oz. New York Strip<\/a> \u2013 47g<\/strong><\/p>\n 7 oz. Ribeye<\/a> \u2013 45g<\/strong><\/p>\n 7 oz. T-Bone<\/a> \u2013\u00a043g<\/strong><\/p>\n 20 oz. Porterhouse<\/a> \u2013 102g<\/strong><\/p>\n 4 oz.

Chicken-Fried Steak<\/a> \u2013\u00a019g<\/strong><\/p>\n Now, like most folks, we don\u2019t have a crazy amount of time most mornings, but if there\u2019s a few minutes on the clock, we know steak can be on the menu.<\/p>\n Naturally, the thicker the steak, the longer it\u2019ll take to fry. And we mean fry because that\u2019s what you\u2019ll be doing. So before you begin you might consider slicing the steak horizontally in two just for the sheer fact it\u2019ll cook faster. You\u2019ll be halving the protein content in the steak, but you\u2019ll have a second steak for tomorrow morning. Just weigh what\u2019s more important: time or protein?<\/p>\n Grab your cast iron pan. Drip a bit of oil in there, and get it nice and hot. Then place your skillet into the pan and sear that fella for a few minutes on each side.<\/p>\n Steak + Eggs:<\/strong> Fry your eggs in the leftover steak drippings to give them a robust taste. Or sprinkle some shredded meat into an omelet to create an all-in-one protein powerhouse.<\/p>\n Steak + Potatoes:<\/strong> Crispy hash browns or home fries complete your cuisine with a helping of crave-worthy carbs to keep your body energized.<\/p>\n Steak + Produce:<\/strong> Avocados, mushrooms, tomatoes, or fresh fruit are rich with many other vitamins and minerals your body requires to stay healthy and alert throughout the day. Try tossing the mushrooms and tomatoes in with the steak\u2026 you\u2019ll thank us later.<\/p>\n Steak + Nuts:<\/strong> The healthy fats packed in a handful of nuts in the morning work hand in hand with the steak\u2019s proteins to increase the effectiveness of maintaining your body\u2019s blood sugar levels. Plus, the nuts\u2019 healthy fats are a good component for helping to support good cholesterol levels.<\/p>\n These are just a handful of pairings off the top of our head. We\u2019re sure you can think of more, and keep in mind, depending on what you\u2019re cooking and how much time you legitimately have in the morning, instead of cutting it thinner, you could also enjoy steak strips, chunks, or shredded.<\/p>\n So, let\u2019s try this again: what\u2019s for breakfast? Extra-satisfaction, a body filled with energy, and stronger willpower toward snacks\u2026 sounds great to us!<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider show_divider=”off” _builder_version=”4.21.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.omahasteaks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/blogwp_everybody-eats-why-you-should-consider-mail-order-food-gifts-scaled-1.jpg” title_text=”blogwp_everybody-eats-why-you-should-consider-mail-order-food-gifts-scaled” align_tablet=”center” align_phone=”center” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”4.21.2″ always_center_on_mobile=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_cta title=”Send Delicious Gifts for Any Occasion” button_url=”https:\/\/www.omahasteaks.com\/buy\/Gifts?SRC=RZ0636″ button_text=”Shop Meat Gifts” _builder_version=”4.21.2″ use_background_color=”off” background_layout=”light” global_colors_info=”{}” button_text_size__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_text_size__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_text_size__hover_enabled=”off” button_text_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_text_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_text_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_border_width__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_border_width__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_border_width__hover_enabled=”off” button_border_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_border_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_border_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_border_radius__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_border_radius__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_border_radius__hover_enabled=”off” button_letter_spacing__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_letter_spacing__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_letter_spacing__hover_enabled=”off” button_bg_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_bg_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_bg_color__hover_enabled=”off”]Are you looking for great gift ideas?
