Moroccan Spiced Chicken and Squash

An Ethnic Entree for Intermittent Fasting

Moroccan Spiced Chicken and Squash. With so many eating plans and diets to choose from when looking to lose weight, it can be challenging to make the decision that’ll end in the best results. If your goal is to shed extra pounds, consider an option that still allows you to eat the meals you enjoy. (Family Features) 

Written by Joel Marion, CISSN, NSCA-CPT, a five-time best-selling e-book author and co-founder of the e-commerce supplement company BioTrust Nutrition, “Always Eat After 7 PM” debunks popular diet myths and offers an easy-to-follow diet that accelerates fat-burning and allows you to indulge in your most intense cravings by eating the majority of your calories at night. The outlined plan features a 14-day “acceleration phase” designed for rapid results, a “main phase” when you’ll learn which fat-burning foods to eat to achieve your weight loss goals, and a “lifestyle phase” to keep the weight off for good.

Conventional wisdom dictates that it’s best to avoid carbs, eat an early dinner, and never eat immediately before bed. However, Marion debunks the myths underlying traditional dieting with a simple, highly effective weight loss program allowing readers to enjoy social dinners without restriction, satisfy nighttime hunger with fat-burning sweet and salty pre-bedtime snacks, and indulge cravings with strategically timed cheat meals.

With straightforward food lists, easy-to-follow meal plans, and recipes for each phase, this can be a simpler, more enjoyable way to lose weight without feeling restricted. For example, this comforting one-pot dinner recipe for Moroccan Spiced Chicken and Squash has taken directly from the book packs flavor with chicken and spices melding with spinach, tomatoes, and butternut squash. Satisfying and simple, it can appease the family while helping you stay focused on your own eating plan.
