Friday & Saturday: Dinner Out
Sunday: Pistachio Crusted Rack of Lamb & Balsamic Roasted Brussel Sprouts
Link for Lamb Recipe: https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/222394/pistachio-crusted-rack-of-lamb/
Tips: Trim the fat on the lamb roast (I get mine from Costco), omit the breadcrumbs and oils to make this meal more macro friendly. I use spray avocado oil for the pan and to “wet” the crushed pistachios. I use 6 tsp of dijon mustard, ½ cup of crushed raw pistachios, and calculated in 1 tsp of avocado oil for cooking. I have calculated the macros with these recipe adjustments, using myfitnesspal, and using only one lamb rack (8 ribs) which yields four servings. The adjusted macros are below.
Macros for Lamb: Serving: 2 ribs, 435 calories, 3.2g carbs, 34.9g fat, 23g protein, 1.5g fiber
