This one’s for the meatheads who love to slam weights and slam chili! Did you know your humble pot of chili can be a muscle-building powerhouse?

“Pump up your chili, you idiot!”- Arnold…probably

Double Down on Protein:
Double up that beef because beef is king! However, if you want to drop a few of those calories and party at the same time, you can even mix meats. More meat is better than less meat I always say. Mix lean ground beef with either ground turkey or ground venison for a protein-packed punch.

Beans in chili is the age-old debate. If you want to add beans to the mix, do it. You don’t have to though. They will add some more protein to the mix and muscle-friendly carbs and fiber though. Your call depending on if your team beans or team meat.
