Anyone know any good easy ethnic food sauces/dishes? I tried Pataks Korma simmer sauce the other week.. good stuff

pataks range is crazy good IMO - if you haven't, give it (any of their range) a try slow cooked using 'roo mince. Good sh!t

but actually I'm in for the same question... or just general good food recommendations. I seriously need to stop eating so many pizza's lol. Not that I don't bloody well love them but I'm in a food rut and need some variety

p.s was in sydney this weekend and grabbed some of those peanut butter oreos and a peanut butter snickers; not bad at all IMO, but not really noteworthy tbh (is anything any more?)

guys are there any decent protein bars out there? All of the ones I’ve tried taste horrible.

My current protein bar is caramel kit kit with a whey shake.

I noticed a few of you guys are eating those quest bars taste out of 10?

cheers

I got mine from ebay. To be honest, 5 sprays doesn't really do much. If you start adding more to it (which you probably will) then the calories add up.

I don't get the point of it? It defeats the purpose of the good fats and health benefits in olive oil etc

If you don't want something to stick use a nonstick pan

I know this isn't MEN but thought I'd post this in here as it's a valid alternative to chicken/fish if you get bored

Used 500g Picnic Primo bacon. 500g roo mince. 1 onion. 100g spicy bulgogi marinade (but could use whatever you want)

596 cals 94P/26C/13F (from 2 serves)

It's like a chicken mingyong...minus chicken and add roo

Guys I need some input...how best can me and my sponsors organise an eating comp?

I am faster than most people but it has been suggested that it could be teams of 2 vs me...

Essentially I would have to eat twice as much food in the 10 minute time limit..not sure if possible..

(opponents are footballers who would be used to eating large amounts of food)

ITT your opponents go first and record a time and then you go afterwards to try and beat them. Obviously because you are the garbage guts threat, or at least you want it to be played out that way for the entertainment value.

You need a good MC for the comp!

[foodpr0n]

If bb.com can ship Dymatize internationally (it ships 'bb.com casein' so why not?!) , we can get the Dymatize Cinnamon Bun Casein!!
Price is $75 incl. shipping?! for $2kg and $140 (70 each) for two!

That's about as good as you can get for things like ON domestically.

I love your proats on MEN, how do you make them? are they the same thing as overnight oats? I made Sludge for the first time the other day left it in the freezer to log lol

LOL. Done that before :P

I do hot & cold but mostly hot.

2/3 cup oats
cocoa/cinnamon
1 tbspn peanut butter of choice
Lots of water so that it is about 1/2” above oats

Nuke (time will vary depending on microwave) For mine it is about 3:30.

Check to see if it is all done to you’re preference. I prefer mine slightly runny as there is still powder to be added. Let it cool for a few mins then add 1tbspn of additional peanut butter & 1 scoop of protein powder. If the oats are a bit dry you may need to add a little water to mix it in.

Overnight oats mix is normally:
2/3 cup oats
150ml ffgy
sf pudding mix
lots of water

+ whatever other flavours.

[andyboi]

I find when I put in a lot of water in my overnight oats, it makes it so much less sweet!

You guys should try skim (or low fat) milk instead of water - so much creamier and so much more flavour for such little cals!

[jzpowahz]

andyboi: yeah you're right mate. It's a balancing act.

ausfoodlover: agreed. I do it sometimes but as I normally have them at work I CBF keeping milk there and I don't really want to use all of it that's for coffee/tea. I don't think my work mates would be too happy

[BlackHeart.au]

Guys I found another Invention:



Let It melt a little, till soft (I leave it out for 20 min)

Than add









2 scoops of ON cookies & Cream Casein

Mix until smooth consistancy, them put back in freezer.

Macros of Bulla 98% FF are much better in comparison to the peter's no added sugar. If not dieting, then it doesn't matter.

but the little mixture looks awesome!

[jzpowahz]

actually, how'd you get those macros. This is what I came up with.


icecream
1260 cals

protein
240 cals

12 x serves (1.2 litre)

50gm serve = 257 kj x 12 = 3085 kj

+ 62gm ON casien = 1000kj

3085 + 1000 = 4085

4085 divide by 4.2 = 985 Kcal

[jzpowahz]

not to be pedantic but from MFP says 46g/serve and 828g per tub. So that is 18 serves per tub.

1ml of icecream doesn't equal 1g.

I'm just going off the label on the tub. Calorieking says otherwise. When I weigh 1/2 of the tub up on the scale it comes out to 300gm. I'm not sure now lol.

I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed, However from what you're saying is... the label is inaccurate? I remember Emma saying something about them not counting the fibre and sugar alchols + air.

I dunno

per 100g it's 110cal.
iirc it's something around xx fat, xx protein and like 9.5g carbs (6.5g fibre) you have to count the fibre in the carb count to make it equal 110cal.

thus it's 'really' ~15g carbs per 100g not 9.5g.

So if the whole tub is 600g then it's 90g (15g/100) carbs not ~50g.

Thanks for clearing that up. He got me worried that I was eating more cals than expected, However I don't care for high carb intake, as i'm drinking heaps of coffees a day.

Slow thread is slow! Get excited guys....

Aussie bodies HPLC is an quick protein fix for me at work. keeps me satisfied for a good 2-3 hours.
On my carb loading days I go for the carb concious bars from GNC.
Btw any good supp stores in VIC? pref SE area. Kinda sick of getting ripped from GNC
