As new research continues to support the link between red meat and cancer risk, more people are reducing the amount they eat. AICR recommends consuming no more than 18 ounces of red meat per week. This simple recipe features a modern take on the old favorite steak sandwich. Using lean cuts like London broil can also help reduce your fat intake and help you manage your weight. And adding red onions, spinach and garlic enhances the flavor of the meat in a healthy way. Learn more about red and processed meats and the cancer connection.

Succulent Yogurt Marinated Chicken Kebabs
Created by Staff
This new way to serve up chicken features a unique combo of mint, garlic, cumin, cayenne pepper and yogurt for good nutrition and great taste. Greek yogurt is thicker than the regular kind you may be used to. It’s strained to remove some of the excess whey, which makes it thicker and gives it rich flavor. Marinating chicken helps it maintain moistness during cooking and adds great flavor without the fat. Serve with hummus or rice for a balanced meal.

Makes 6 servings.
