Vege fuel pancakes
How bout those late night carb cravings when you have reached your daily allotments. We all have tricks up our sleeves. Oldie but a goodie
Crack like 6-8 egg whites in a blender
Turn on blender slow and add a scoop or two of twin labs vege fuel, observe consistency. Add butter buds/ Molly mcbutter to flavor. Few packets of Splenda. You should have a nice batter.
Cook on skillet, have some Cary's sugar free syrup in moderation.

People usually also throw in way too many scoops of protein too when they're trying to make "protein" pancakes. i read somewhere that the whey is what gives it a rubbery texture so just use half a scoop.
this is the protein pancake recipe i use.
-1/2 cup blended oats
-1 apple(cored and chopped)
-2 eggs or 1 egg and 1 egg white
-1 tsp cinnamon
-1/2 scoop chocolate mint whey(tastes horrrrrrible, but you can't taste it in the pancake lol)
~1/2 tsp vanilla extract(more if you want)
they turn out decently fluffy as well, I eat em plain without any toppings and i love em haha.▲▼▲5'7" Master Race Crew▲▼▲

Ohh, I don't ever add protein to my pancakes though because I usually try to get protein from food unless I'm not in the mood for protein filled food that day lol. I tried protein pancakes once and they tasted terrible haha. Forced myself to eat them for the protein, then vowed to never eat anything that isn't delicious again haha.

Here is a recipe for whole wheat protein pancakes. I usually make these when I need the extra calories throughout the day. My breakfast is also my pre-workout meal so if I'm doing a major muscle like legs or back, I'll probably make this.
What you need:
2 cups of whole wheat pancake mix
2 scoops of whey protein
3 eggs
1 cup of oats
1 cup of skim milk
1-3 cups of water (depending on how thick you want the batter to be)
2 tablespoons of olive oil
Optional: mixed berries
Mix the eggs first then add your pancake mix/protein. After adding your cup of milk, keep mixing and adding water until you get the desired thickness. Add the oats in the end.
I toss this in my frying pan and basically make it like I make scrambled eggs as I haven't mastered the art of flipping this bad boy over.Born in Lithuania | Living in Chicago |

Cutting Recipe: Ironmeals Popeye's Chicken
Popeye's Chicken is a cutting meal that features the Popeye's favorite vegetable...Spinach! This dish is a quick way to show off your culinary prowess before showing off your quads as the recipe calls for a balsamic glaze that takes boring old chicken breast to the next level! In addition, fat levels and carbs are low with the use of non- stick cooking spray.
Ingredients:
1 boneless skinless chicken breast (6-8 oz)
1 tsp. Garlic powder
1 tsp. Italian Seasoning
2 tsp. Pepper
2 tsp. Salt
3 cups fresh spinach
3 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp. orange juice
½ medium onion
Non-stick spray
Recipe:
Slice the onion and set to the side.
Tenderize the chicken breast with a meat tenderizer and season with 1 tsp. salt, 1 tsp. pepper, 1 tsp. garlic powder, and 1 tsp. Italian seasoning.
Glaze:
Heat a small pot on medium-low. Once warm, add 1 tbsp. orange juice and then add 3 tbsp. balsamic vinegar. Let the mixture reduce while the rest of the recipe is prepared. Stir occasionally. The glaze should be approximately 1/3 the volume of its original when complete.
Chicken and vegetables:
In a pan heated to medium, spray with olive oil non-stick spray (approx. 1 sec spray). Add the chicken breast. Cook on each side for 5-6 minutes until the chicken feels firm to touch and juices are white. Remove the chicken from the pan but keep pan heated.
Re-spray pan with non-stick spray (approx. 1/2 second spray) and add the sliced onion. After about 30 seconds, add the spinach and slowly mix the two together. Add 1 tsp. salt and 1 tsp. pepper for flavor. Once the volume of the spinach is reduced by approximately ½ begin plating.
Plating:
First lay down the spinach and onion mixture. Then add the sautéed chicken breast. Top with the balsamic glaze and enjoy!

If you are like me you absolutely love KFC coleslaw, but also might be concerned with the calorie count of the stuff due to how much sugar and fat is in it.
I've made this recipe a few times now, cutting out different things and replacing until I came up with a good healthier alternative that is very close to the original. I hope you guys like it as much as I do!
1/2 cup mayonnaise (I use low fat canola oil mayo none of that miracle whip stuff)
1/3 cup splenda
1/4 cup milk - I use 1%, skim just won't work properly
1/4 cup buttermilk - gotta be real buttermilk, this fat is important for flavor and texture!
2 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 1/2 tablespoons white vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
8 cups finely chopped cabbage (about 1 head)
1/4 cup shredded carrot (1 medium carrot)
2 tablespoons minced onion
directions:
Use 1 large bowl and 1 medium bowl, one to put your cut up cabbage, onions and carrots, the other to mix the sauce.
Dice cabbage and carrots into small rice size pieces, mix with minced onion and place in large bowl.
Mix all other ingredients in a medium mixing bowl,( I use a simple rubber spatula to mix them with), then pour all the contents into the big bowl, then mix once more. It is very important to not just eat it right away but to let it sit at least 2 hours in the fridge.
This makes a huge amount of coleslaw. It creates around 8.5 cups or so, and at KFC you usually only get a half cup for a meal.
total calorie breakdown is as follows for the ENTIRE amount:
641 calories
41g fat
60g carbs
15g prot
now if you break that down to snack size, (I just eat a cup) you divide by 8:
80 cal
5g fat
7.5g carb
~2g prot
not too shabby for a snack or part of a meal

well, here's a seriously low carb, high protein breakfast I eat a lot . . .
ingredients:
4 egg whites
2 whole eggs
1 thin slice of butter
1 tblsp sour cream
1 can of tuna
1 tblsp of chipotle flavored tabasco sauce
pinch of salt
pinch of black pepper
directions
In small bowl combine egg whites and eggs and whip with a fork until thoroughly mixed
Place a pot on medium heat and dissolve butter running it all along the bottom of the pot (could replace with your oil of choice)
Pour egg mix into the pot
Using a rubber spatula constantly stir the eggs as they heat up on the bottom of the pot, sometimes removing pot from heat if it starts to cook too quickly.
Moving it on and off the heat is important and keeping any egg from adhering to the bottom.
Keep stirring as it solidifies until all the egg is cooked and close to being overcooked, then remove from heat and drop the sour cream in the container.
Toss in salt and black pepper and stir vigorously with the spatula once more (this is optional based on diet/taste)
once everything is mixed well, add can of tuna and about a full tblsp of Chipotle Tabasco Sauce to the mix.
Place on high heat for about a min stirring quickly.
enjoy!
I usually eat this with whole grain toast, however if you are cutting carbs, maybe that's not the best option for you, so YMMV.
here is your calorie breakdown :
total cals: 423
carb: 3
fat: 16.5

Since I need to eat at least 3000 calories per day, and don't want to fill it up with crap, I was wondering if you guys can give me a hand?
I will look through this thread myself, but was wondering if you guys can recommend some food to 'fill in' between Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner.
Just stuff that will benefit me nutritionally and help me to reach my calorie target.

Protein bars
Quick and easy homemade protein bars.

Start by blitzing the peanuts up, add olive oil and continue to blitz until you have peanut butter( 1-2 minutes depending on crunchy or smooth ). Mix with all other ingredients in bowl until it starts to combine together, add more oil if too dry. Put mixture in 8x8 baking tray, spread/ pat down until fully spread evenly. Whack it in the fridge to firm up for an hour, take it out and divide into bars. I cut mine into six, store in foil in fridge and enjoy.

Yogen Fruz Frozen Yogurt (not even kidding, it tastes so much like it).
1/2 cup cottage cheese(I use 2%) (Trust me on the cottage cheese, even if you hate it!)
1/3-1/2 cup frozen raspberries
1/2 a large ripe frozen banana
2-3 tbsp milk of choice (the less the better, just enough to get it to blend)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
stevia drops or another sweetener to taste (you don't need much)
Blend together cottage cheese, vanilla and milk until smooth and creamy. Add in the fruit and blend until smooth again. Pour into a bowl and pop into the freezer for 10-15 mins. Take out and enjoy! (Great with additonal frozen fruit on top)
or alternatively you could do:
1/2 cup cottage cheese
1 cup mixed frozen berries (my favourite is blueberries and strawberries)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2-3 tbsp milk
sweetener to taste
Blend the same way as above. Feel free to double the recipe. Hope you like it!

Here is a taco salad recipe that I modified from a "tamale pie" on AllRecipes.com. It's pretty spicy and because of that I love it.
Basically you take 2 pounds of ground meat (I typically use 1 grass fed pound ground bison and 1 pound grass fed ground beef) You brown it in a pan with which ever peppers you like (I use a couple of jalapeños and a bell pepper) When it's cooked you add a 16oz can/jar of prepared salsa (I used Emerald valley Organic Medium Salsa) and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, drain and eat with which ever greens you prefer. (I use organic Romain)
You can add avocado or guacamole and sour cream/Greek yogurt and maybe some shredded cheese if you'd like. MHmm
