Leafy greens like spinach and kale contain high levels of nitric oxide, a compound which assists in blood flow and muscle metabolism - which may be especially beneficial for those looking to get ripped abs.
A balanced diet is important for any gym-goer, so it may be time to skip dinner-time favorites like chicken or steak every now and then and try out some dishes using nitric oxide-rich greens.
Kale and white beans are an Italian classic. First, saute garlic and shallots in some oil until they become translucent. Then add clean, chopped kale and cook it until wilted. Pour in a can or a cup of cooked white beans and saute until heated through. Add this mixture to cooked spaghetti or other pasta, then sprinkle with some lemon juice and parmesan cheese for a tasty, heart-healthy meal that provides vitamins, carbohydrates and protein.
Spinach and eggs are best friends when it comes to flavor. Simply wilt some spinach in garlic-infused olive then add some beaten eggs. Cook until done, and serve with some whole wheat toast for a fast, inexpensive and nutritious meal.
