Preparation
In a small bowl, combine the julienned carrot (¼ cup) and the julienned zucchini (½ small) with the white vinegar (1 Tbsp) and set aside to soak for 10 minutes to slightly soften and infuse flavor.
In another small bowl, mix the mayonnaise (2 Tbsp), hot sauce (1 tsp), smoked paprika (½ tsp), garlic powder (¼ tsp), and apple cider vinegar (¼ tsp) to create the keto sriracha sauce. Set aside.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt the butter (1 Tbsp). Add the ground beef (6 oz) to the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 4–5 minutes, breaking it up with a spatula, until browned.
Drain any excess liquid if necessary, then add the soaked zucchini and carrots to the beef along with the soy sauce or coconut aminos (1 Tbsp). Stir everything together and cook for another 2–3 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still slightly crisp.
In a separate small pan, fry the egg (1) to your preferred doneness, seasoning lightly with salt and pepper.
Plate the beef and vegetable mixture in a bowl, drizzle generously with the sriracha sauce, and top with the fried egg. Serve hot.
"Metabolic training refers to conditioning exercises intended to increase the storage and delivery of energy for any activity.
There are three distinct biochemical means by which energy is provided for all human action. These “metabolic engines” are known as the phosphagen pathway, the glycolytic pathway, and the oxidative pathway.
The first, the phosphagen pathway, provides the bulk of energy used in highest-powered activities, those that last less than ten seconds.
The second, the glycolytic pathway, dominates moderate-powered activities, those that last up to several minutes.
The third, the oxidative pathway provides energy for low-powered activities, those that last in excess of several minutes."
