Portabella "Steak" Sandwiches with Umami Sauce
Serves 4
Umami is the Japanese term for deliciousness. The umami flavor in certain foods comes from glutamic acid, an amino acid associated with savory or meaty flavors. Mushrooms contain a significant amount of glutamic acid and are considered an umami-rich food. Other umami-rich foods include tomatoes, aged cheeses like Parmeggiano Reggiano, and fermented foods like fish sauce and soy sauce. This recipe aggregates a number of umami-rich foods to create a savory, meat-free sandwich.
For umami sauce
•¼ cup mayonnaise
•1 ½ teaspoons reduced sodium or “lite” soy sauce
•½ teaspoon Dijon-style mustard
For caramelized onions
•1 medium white or yellow onion, sliced
•1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
•½ teaspoon dried thyme
For portabella mushrooms
•4 large portabella mushroom caps, stems removed
•1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
•3 teaspoons reduced sodium or “lite” soy sauce
•3 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
•4 whole grain rolls, toasted or warmed on the grill
Preheat your grill to medium high.
In a small bowl combine the mayonnaise, soy sauce, and mustard. Set aside
In a medium sauté pan over medium high heat combine the onions and olive oil. Cook for 10–12 minutes, or until onions are brown and have developed caramelized flavor. Add the thyme, cook for additional 30 seconds, remove from heat, and set aside
Brush the portabella mushroom caps with olive oil on both sides. Grill 3–4 minutes per side, or until tender.
Assemble your sandwiches by placing a mushroom cap on the bottom of each bun. Top the mushroom with about ¼ cup caramelized onions and 1 tablespoon of the umami sauce. Place the top bun on each sandwich and serve.

High Protein Chocolate Mousse
Gods gift to the cut!!! Ive been toying with this recipe and my original plan was to get more of an ice-cream texture but instead came out with more of a mousse substance.
1 Serving 1/3 Fat Cottage Cheese
1 Scoop Dyamatize Chocolate Whey
1 Scoop ON Chocolate Supreme Casein
2 Servings of Sugar Free Strawberry Preserve
2 Egg Whites
Dash of Vanilla Extract
Put all that in a blender and work it till it becomes liquid and once it begins to mix on its own just let it go for 5 mins or so to get it as thin as possible. It will actually start off very dark and after a while becomes much lighter in color. Then freeze and take out about 20 mins before eating=HEAVEN especially with some blueberries/raspberries on top.

Amazing Fruit Protein Shake
Okay, so I LOVE my chocolate whey protein, but sometimes I wish I could find a good fruit flavored protein or something a little different since I'm not always in the mood for straight chocolate, and personally I'm not a big fan of vanilla and cookies and cream. So, I had a brilliant idea, just make my own! It's extremely simple:
1/2 Cup Fresh Blueberries
About 6 Whole Fresh Strawberries (cut the leaves off of course)
1/2 Cup Milk (tastes better, but you can do water for less fat)
1/2 to 1 scoop of your favorite whey protein
Put in a blender to liquefy, let set if foamy, blend again, let set, fridge if needing colder, and ENJOY!!!

113g spaghetti sauce
57g kimchi
48g red cabbage w/apple- Rinse noodles thoroughy with hot water to minimize the fishy smell.

- Enjoy.

Quick and easy tuna bake! I've timed myself and can make this in under 20 minutes Yep I'm a freak.
2 Tins of tuna (425 grams)
2 Diced onions
2 Medium sized sweet potato (cooked in microwave or boiled)
2 Chillis
6 Whole eggs
2 Slice of multi grain bread crumbed
Tip in some frozen vegies, I like brocolli or beans
Mix all together, mash and place in a baking dish (about 5cm, 2" high) bake for about 40 minutes (170 degrees celcius).
Then I can just slice, zap and eat when required.
Quick, easy and healthy.
I have been trying to give it a bit more healthy taste, but haven't hit the jackpot yet, any ideas appreciatedTaking the "less is more" approach to cardio...
