Chicken Pineapple Delight

OK, so the name could use some help. But here is a tasty recipe.

5 oz Tabla Tikka-Marinated Chicken Thighs (from FreshDirect)
1 1/2 c onion
2 c green and red bell peppers
2 tomatoes diced
1 cup pineapple, diced
1 2/3 tsp olive oil
curry powder
ginger powder
salt

In saute pan, heat oil, saute onion and peppers in spices. Add chicken, cook until done. lower heat. Add tomatoes, cook until mushy. Add pineapple, cook until warm. Add salt to taste.

Makes 5 blocks.

In related news, I was reminded upon seeing this video of Robb Wolf that I should be using an 0.7 multiplier for my block calculation. (My previous calculation was your typical goal-seeking excel-based approach. “I want to eat 15 blocks, so I will adjust the multiplier I use so that the answer comes out to 15!”) An 0.7 multiplier actually makes things pretty easy. You just divide your lean body mass by 10 to get your daily block prescription.

So I have as of yesterday dropped my block consumption down to 13 blocks from 15. That’s 3 3-block meals and 2 2-block snacks. This explains why the recipe is for 5 blocks (3 for me, 2 for girlfriend), compared with the previously-posted six block recipes.
