Today, we’ll be introducing meat nabe recipes using lamb meat, chicken, and pork. Let’s do this!

LEVEL UP YOUR NABE WITH LAMB MEAT!

Lamb meat is a great source of L-carnitine which promotes metabolism and warms the body.
A common way to enjoy lamb meat is by grilling or baking, so you may not have heard of lamb meat nabe before. Today, we’ll be introducing two lamb meat recipes to boost your metabolism and warm you up!
