I understand that this is a fat-heavy shake, but if you struggle to put on pounds as I do, it may just be what you need. I often split this into 2 servings, so realize that this yields a large amount (24-28 oz).

I'm interested to see what you all think and if there is a better ingredient I could use in place of something.

[ApacheHellFire]

Make this right before I leave for the gym and keep it in a zip lock baggie until afterwards to take with protein shake.

You Need:
- 1 Light Flat Out Wrap
- 1 tbsp of Jif Fat Reduced Peanut Butter (Creamy)
- 1 Banana

How to make:
-Lay out your wrap and cover the entire side in peanut butter.
-(Optional) micowave your wrap to melt the peanut butter
-lay banana at one end of the wrap and roll it up
-cut in half and store in ziplock baggie for post workout deliciousness

Helps me get some complex carbs in with my protein shake along with healthy fats (mono and polyunsaturated). The banana definitely makes it taste great and even adds that post workout insulin spike for maximum bro-science gains.

Definitely an easy and quick snack that i love to have after my morning workout.

I have a smoothie after the gym everyday.

Frozen strawberries, banana, soy milk and plain greek yogurt. Blend it all up.

Delicious.

[AtomicDoom]

Put the following things in a blender:
250ml of milk
100g of cottage cheese
1/2 or 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
1-2 teaspoons of honey

Blend for a couple of minutes. It tastes pretty good in my opinion (better than eating cottage cheese, that's for sure) and has about 20g of protein.

I'm sure there are a few Curry lovers amongst you.

Here's a very tasty Masala dish

Serves 4


INGREDIENTS
Groundnut oil
1 large onion, peeled
2 fresh green chillies
1" piece of ginger, peeled
3 garlic cloves, peeled
½ tsp red chilli powder
1 tsp turmeric
2 tsp garam masala
1 tbsp soft brown sugar
1 tbsp tomato puree
400g tinned chopped tomatoes
4 boneless chicken breasts (approx 150g each), cubed
10 dried curry leaves
4-6 tbsp natural yoghurt
Handful of fresh coriander leaves, chopped
For the steamed rice
400g basmati rice, rinsed
600ml cold water
Salt and pepper
3 cardamom pods, lightly crushed

Method

Heat two tablespoons of groundnut oil in a pan. Slice the onion and fry in the oil and sweat well. Meanwhile, deseed and chop the chilli, chop the ginger and add to the hot pan, crush in the garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes to soften.

Add the chilli powder, turmeric, garam masala and sugar and cook for 1-2 minutes. Next, add the tomato puree and chopped tomatoes to the pan and allow them to cook for a further 3 to 4 minutes.

Transfer the sauce to a food processor and blend until smooth.

Add a tablespoon of fresh groundnut oil into the pan and fry the chicken pieces until lightly coloured. Pour in the blended sauce and add the curry leaves. Simmer gently for 10 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

Place the rice in a saucepan, add the cold water and season with salt and pepper. Lightly crush the cardamom pods with your fingers and add to the pan with the star anise. Cover with a lid and cook for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow the rice to steam for a further 5 minutes. Remove the cardamom and star anise. Fluff up the rice with a fork and set aside.

Stir in the yoghurt into the chicken curry along with half the chopped coriander and season to taste. Serve with the steamed rice and garnish with the remaining coriander

Just had an amazing lunch, Chicken with cheese and Marinara sauce. I cooked it last night, got the chicken out the oven still hot, sprinkled it with cheese, and then topped it with hot marinara sauce! Then heated it up in the works micro after my workout, the sauce and cheese all melted in. Satisfied!!!

Got the sauce recipe from a website, here is the recipe copied and pasted from the site if anyone is interested:

"Marinara Sauce Ingredients (recipe inspired by Giada De Laurentiis, but tweaked a bit)

1/4 cup olive oil
1 medium yellow onion-diced
4 cloves garlic-crushed, diced, chopped…however you like it
Bunch of basil
2 28 0z. cans of whole organic tomatoes with their juice
1 tablespoon oregano
salt and pepper to taste
Combine both cans of whole tomatoes with their juice and the bunch of basil in a food processor or blender-like this…

Pulse until smooth and set aside. Place olive oil, onions and garlic in a saute pan and cook over medium heat until translucent and soft…about 10 minutes….

As tomato sauce, oregano, and salt and pepper to taste and bring to a boil over medium high heat. Once boiling, let the sauce simmer on low for about an hour.

I find the longer you simmer, the better it tastes…if I am home I will just let it sit for a couple hours on low, stirring occasionally. If you don’t have time, it’s still delicious after 30 minutes! It makes a lot."

Low Carb / Low Fat Ridiculously Easy Salad



Spring mix, microgreens, and Foster Farm's Rotisserie Chicken Breast, dressed with Newman's Lite Sesame and Ginger. The drink is Crystal Light Energy: Wild Strawberry (0 calories, 160g caffeine)

Calories: ~380
Protein: 74g
Carbs: 9g
Fats: 4g

Preheat oven to 350. Throw chicken breast in for 25 minutes. Cut into strips, add to salad, and dress. Chicken breast can be a little bland and dry, but with the lettuce and dressing it all comes together really nicely. The whole is far greater than the sum of its parts on this one.

This sounds sooooo perfect. Can't WAIT to try. Appreciate it!

Protein pancake:

1/2 Scoop of whey
2 Eggs
1 Egg White
1/4 teaspoon of Baking Soda (optional - just makes it more airy)
3 tablespoons milk (or almond milk)
Granulated sweetener

Mix the dry ingredients, then mix in the wet ingredients, then pour in a pan with 1 cal cooking spray, flip over after a couple of mins, and DONE!
I dust it with some granulated sweetener, and smear over a tablespoon of peanut butter. Sometimes I add half a chopped banana.

It's pretty much carb free. Obviously if you add the banana it will increase the carbs so it's up to you how low cal/low carb you want it. But overall a super high protein and delicious breakfast idea! Enjoy.


HEALTHY PROTEIN CHOCOLATE CAKE IN A MUG

1/2 scoop whey
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
3 tablespoons sweetener (or just sweeten to taste)]
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 egg white
2 tablespoons milk/almond milk
1 tablespoon peanut butter (optional)
1 tablespoon flaxseed (optional)

Mix the dry ingredients in a mug, then add the wet ingredients and mix, then add a tbsp of peanut butter in the middle of the mixture (if you like). Then put the mug in the microwave for 30 secs - 1 min depending on how gooey or dry you want the cake, and also depending on how powerful your microwave is.

DONE, a delicious high protein, low carb chocolate cake. It feels like it should be a cheat snack and high cal, but it is not. Like magic

So I'm looking for something healthy to eat at football tailgates. Nobody wants to pull out a salad while everyone is eating hot dogs and brats, right?

I figured I'd try to find a healthy buffalo chicken dip.

Most recipes look like this

Ingredients:
8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup blue cheese or ranch salad dressing
1/2 cup FRANK'S® REDHOT® Original Cayenne Pepper Sauce or FRANK'S® REDHOT® Buffalo Wing Sauce
1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese or shredded mozzarella cheese
2 cans (12.5 oz. each) SWANSON® White Premium Chunk Chicken Breast in Water, drained

**************************************

What if I replaced cream cheese with cottage cheese, and replaced blue cheese/ranch with greek yogurt.

Would it still taste good?

Obviously the easy answer is "Try it out." But I don't want to spend the money if it's going to taste like crap.

Any ideas?

[SiRtIkTaK]

2 slices of Ezekiel bread(found in frozen food section)
2 slices of fat-free cheese
4 egg whites
3 oz of fat-free(or low-fat) low sodium ham, chicken, or turkey meat(thinly sliced)

1. coat pan with cooking spray
2. cook eggs to desired texture
3. cook meat until slightly brown on both sides
4. if you have a toaster you can heat up the bread, otherwise just use the pan
5. While cooking eggs, I recommend toasting the bread, adding the cheese then the eggs to melt the cheese
6. put all ingredients together and you got one hell of a breakfast sandwich

Not sure exactly the nutritional facts but it's rich in protein, complex carbs, and low in fat...calories right around 400ish

Tortilla Pizza
Plain tortilla 118cals
40g low fat mozzeralla 107cals
Napolina pizza sauce 1/3 of jar 49cals
200g chicken breast 220cals

total 494 calories and great to ease that greasy pizza craving i have. Obviously you can customise it how you want it with what ever toppings and what fits your macros, i use chicken/pepperoni and sprinkle with abit of pepper and its good to go.

lay tortilla flat, get the pizza sauce and rub it on the tortilla, sprinkle cheese on then cook a chicken breast i fry mine in the pan until its almost done then put it on the pizza and place in the oven for 5minutes until the cheese goes brown.
