How to Feed a Crowd with Protein-Rich Dishes

It’s time to feed a crowd. What are you putting on the table? Whether it’s a kid’s birthday party, a neighborhood potluck, or a get-together with friends, you want to make a meal that’s satisfying, nutrient-dense, and delicious. But you don’t want to break the bank to make it happen. What are some tips for getting high-quality grass fed meats online for the dish while staying within a budget?

Cut the Protein Into Pieces

If you’re at a potluck or prepping for a big group, cooking and pre-cutting meat help ensure nothing goes to waste and that people can get smaller pieces to try. Grass fed beef is available in various cuts, so you can select one that works well with your dish of choice, like skirt steak for breakfast tacos or tri-tip for a salad.

Mix Meat with Whole Grains

A whole grain will help you “beef up” your dish, so to speak. Mix ground beef or ground chicken into a pasta sauce for whole-wheat pasta, add Korean short ribs to a rice bowl, or prepare corn and soy free pastured farm chicken for a quinoa salad. There are so many ways to mix and match meats, grains, and sauces, helping everyone enjoy a great-tasting, nutrient-dense meal.

Add Beans and Vegetables to the Dish

Beans and vegetables are other fantastic additions that will boost the fiber in your dish. They’re also incredibly cost-effective. Add a bowl of beans to a build-your-own taco bar, mix spinach into a one-dish chicken and orzo bake, or prepare a big batch of your favorite chili. It’s hard to go wrong with one-pot meals full of protein, fiber, and fats.
