I was reading Oxygen a couple weeks ago, and I read of this concoction from a fitness competitor. It's egg whites mixed with chicken. Then covered with a TBS of peanut butter and sugar free syrup. Haha. I'm obsessed. I love sweet/salty things. I love peanut sauce...I have this all the time now. Almost no carbs and I'm full for hours.
Anyone else have a nasty meal that they're in love with?

    I used to mix cottage cheese and tuna. Sometimes I would throw in steamed edamame. It was actually pretty good but everyone who saw it assured me it was nasty looking! lol

    My most recent sludge mixture.

    Natty PB, cottage cheese, canned pumpkin, non-fat yogurt, cinnamon roll whey, vanilla casein, non-fat cream cheese, Torani cinnamon vanilla syrup. Looks like animal vomit, tastes like hnnnngggggg.

    Keep in mind, rhat's after I hit it with an immersion blender to get the cottage cheese curds and chunks from the PB into a consistent paste. It looks awful prior to that.

    I recently tried something I heard last week on the Fat Summit from the female doctor at Indiana U. Whipped cream, stevia (if needed), mascapone cheese, vanilla extract or any other non-carb flavorings of your choosing. She said she had it for a quick week day breakfast.

    @supergal3 - I've done that before, just without the marscapone, which I only recently located at a store! :)

    I was amazed to find a cheese with the macro ratios that mascarpone has, and the fact that it's a soft cheese is even more astonishing. It shouldn't be, but really, most low-carb cheeses are the harder ones.

    Mascarpone is a cheese straight from heaven. The only reason I bought it before was to make Tiramisu. Now it is a regular for me straight off the spoon.

    Yep, I snack on little 50g tubs of pate. My co-workers think it's gross.

    Sliced red peppers with peanut butter. Its actually really refreshing both in taste and that fact that they go together!

    I'm totally with you on the salty/sweet thing! If I have cals left over at the end of the day I have 30g peanut butter with 35g of Wensleydale cheese with cranberries. OMG its like the most delicious dessert I could imagine - my 2 favourite things.
    I'm actually still surprised that 6 weeks in I can eat like this and lose weight consistently. Why did no one tell me this sooner??!! LOL

    I've actually taken to using it as the fat provider in my sludge that uses tiramisu flavored whey, as opposed to the PB or AB I use in everything else. It works amazingly well.

    Our local Chinese restaurant has some lovely sweet peanut butter coated chicken strips. It tastes amazing. I would love a low carb version! So, do you dip the chicken into an egg white, cook and then coat it with melted pb? Or is this in an egg fu young type mixture with small bits of chicken in the egg white like an omelet with a peanut sauce ? Or are we talking about a slurry?

    Sludge! Whey protein + any nut/legume butter +/- low carb berry +/- fat of choice. Water is optional & for consistency purposes only. Whey can be substituted with yogurt or cottage cheese. End result is some really good tasting substance with an "appetizing" diarrhea like appearance. Invention of your modern day bodybuilder

    Imo, casein makes a much better sludge, just because it's thicker. Whey sludge has a horrible tendancy to go from thick as hell to watery soup if you sneeze near it. Though, my recent recipe actually uses 20g vanilla casein and 20g cinnamon roll whey. It's a hair thinner than I'd like, but a gram or two of Xanthan gum fixes that pretty quick.

    Oh okay. I've mixed peanut butter and chocolate whey powder with just a bit of almond milk and it is sort of almost the consistency of thick paste you can eat with a spoon. But I'm talking about a scoop of whey powder and a tablespoon of pb with enough liquid to make it sticky. I haven't tried pb with yogurt or cottage cheese though. Sounds interesting.

    That sounds amazing! I wonder if you could freeze and blend it to make a low carb, thick, soft ice cream consistency?

    That's exactly what my current recipe does. See my previous post about looking like animal vomit. You can sub all off the low fat items I use for full fat versions to make it more keto targetted.

    Here's a screen cap from my Facebook, with all of the ingredients and macros, because lazy. I've made some minor modifications since then, but it's still pretty close.

    I watched this one too and was thinking of giving it a try. I had never even heard of mascapone before someone mentioned it on one of the threads a month or so ago. It is a great way to up my fats. I have a terrible time getting enough calories without going way over on protein. Some don't have an issue with that, but I have found it jacks up my BG. I went over yesterday by about 30-40g from target and my FBG this morning was up 6 pts from trend. I don't use any sweeteners of any kind, so I will leave out the stevia, but this sounds good. I think I may throw in a bit of cinnamon for additional flavor.

    I don't know what mascapone tastes like. I may have to go search for some.

    It isn't pretty, but it reads on paper like it will taste like pumpkin cheesecake.

    It is generally in the deli in a tub, not in the dairy section which is why it took a while for me to find it. The package of at least one brand calls it a butter substitute.

    There's actually no pumpkin taste at all. The pumpkin and cottage cheese are in there for volume, texture, and macros, because they just end up tasting like whatever protein powder they are mixed with. The color on the other hand, not so easy to mask.

    I also ended up dropping the cheesecake pudding mix altogether, and replacing with a bit of Xanthan Gum. It makes it thicker, thus requires more water, thus more volume, without really changing the flavor at all. The 5-8g I was using just wasn't enough to even remotely shine through 20-40g of good vanilla casein, whereas 3g of XG makes a huge thickness difference.

    Cream cheese without the sour. Tastes like cream. Semi-solid cream. Semi solid meaning near the same consistency as cream cheese.
