Made a large and simple dinner last night. 2 cloves garlic sautéed in olive oil. Once cooked, add3 large spiralized zucchini and dash red pepper flakes, before the noodles get mushy, add 1 oz crumbled goat cheese and mix it in. Yummy.6

Had a case of 'that broccoli really needs to go now before it goes bad' and made a huge veggie stirfry (I already had enough protein for the day so no extra protein source).
Ingredients:
215 g spinach
102 g cauliflower
193 g broccoli
98 g bamboo shoots
191 g mushrooms (champignons)
22 g shallot
salt, pepper, soy sauce and sriracha to season.
Total of 248 kcal.
Huge plate. Pretty good and I realized that I actually like bamboo shoots - it's water chestnuts I'm not fond of.

I HATE water chestnuts! Despicable1 -
Im planning to make the protein angel food cake later tonight. Got my eggs cooling to room temp, My fruits and cool whip ready. Cant wait. Pretty sure i know me id make many so i guess its good i have to put it off until dessert time. Get a proper meal in me in the meantime
Side note, Extracts are fantastic. just made a latte out of coffee, stevia and caramel extract and it tastes exactly like the hot caramel drink from tim hortons i used to love thats like a bazillion calories lol.
Dessert minded today clearly ;D2 -
I did it. Oh. My. God.
Only issue i had was eggs are aparently really hard to crack nicely at room temp. Had to add a little Xanthan gum to thicken it slightly when one of my yolks half cracked in the mix. Otherwise. OMG. Used vanilla whey with caramel extract topped with fruits and light whip cream- 205 calorie cake 375 calories total. Its SO much beter thn i expected and has 39g protein. holy. The cake itself tastes like toasted marshmallow.
Edit to add- The cake itself is good enough to eat on its own happily.... Seriously way beter thn i expected. Filled me right up took me 25 minutes to eat. Couldnt eat anther bite lol

Thank you so much for sharing this recipe! You definitely can freeze them. I would use clear wrap and then put in a Ziploc with the date. They would probably taste good frozen too. Like a frozen birthday cake!0 -

Mmmmm. im going to find a way to get peanutbutter/filling in a cupcake version of these for work. Im now determined. Id start trying now but i feel like eatinh an entire carton of egg whites in one night sounds excessive xD1 -
@JaydedMiss thank you for sharing the recipe again. I can’t wait to try this. Some ways I add volume to my meals with minimal calories is using pumpkin. I am obsessed with string beans too and add it to most of my dinners.1

Its peanut flour, I mix it with a sprinkle of salt and some splenda. Its wonderful and way cheaper thn PB2 xD Higher protein lower cal and can make whatever flavor i want its yum
Edit- This is bulk eater thread, Normal peanutbutter sadly isnt bulky2 -
Side note for those who said you were going to make the protein cake, The first one had a way beter texture im not sure if its because i added a bit of xanthan gum or the more likely culprit was the second one fluffed up alot more and was super thick in the tin. Didnt cook as nice XD Still delicious but to get the proper deliciousness make sure not to pile the fluff up to high to cook. I got greedy xD3
