    Breakfast fluff....salted caramel + cinnamon crunch PP, almond milk, vanilla and Splenda. Topped with a Vans waffle and Smuckers sugar free syrup. In a huge bowl. Happy Friday!

    What brand of PP do you use? I’m guessing it’s Quest given the flavors... I make protein fluff almost every day and usually use the Quest salted caramel. Haven’t tried the cinnamon crunch, any good?

    What are you guys recipes / methods making these?

    I do a very simple version. I use 40g of Quest protein powder (important that the powder includes casein), add a little less than a cup of water, mix it well, then sprinkle a teaspoon of xanthan gum over it (it clumps if I add it with the powder). Then I use a hand-held mixer with a whisk attachment and whip it for about 10 minutes.

    I stalk this thread a lot. I would like to suggest a new name. Maybe not volume eaters thread,but: The way we should eat with occasional highly dense food and we might not have an obesity epidemic in America thread? Any thoughts?

    I like this thread too, I don't say much but I check it several times a week. I've gotten many ideas that I tried, one thing was the fluff, it just didn't turn out well after several tries, but I did "discover" xanthan gum & I put it in my smoothie. I made the cloud bread & get many ideas as I like to eat volume twice a day

    I also like this thread- watch it but don’t really post. I like big meals so bulk my recipes up a lot with veggies and other low cal ingredients. Been eating this way since the start of the year, managing my calorie deficit well and have lost nearly 18kg now, so yay for volume eating!

    I once posted my favourite recipe for a soup that I have at least once or twice a week, and got wood, so I mainly keep my recipes to myself, lol.

    The cinnamon is my fave and it has little crunchy bits. I make snow first, then add a squirt of liquid Splenda, Tbs vanilla, 2 tbs powder and almond milk and whip it up in the food processor. When it looks like the lid is going to blow off, it’s done.

    Tonight’s dessert will be a chocolate pumpkin protein cloud cake:
    Pescience vegan powder
    4 servings egg whites
    200 grams canned pumpkin
    Xanthan gum
    Cream of tartar
    Stevia/cinnamon/ salt
    Maybe some chopped berries

    All in all the base of the cake will be less than 200 cals and with toppings maybe 350-400. And it’s hugeeeee

    I'm so happy to have found this tread! I'm always hungry as of the last several weeks-- sometimes an hour after I eat. I get my recommended macros of protein and fat, and have been trying to figure out why I'm raiding the pantry at 8pm every night. I think I need to bulk up on more veggies. Do you all have any advice for how to start? Do I aim for an amount of fruit and veggies with eat each meal etc? Thanks!

    Cherry Fluff
    3-4 tbsp. water
    A 'good' squeeze of lime
    1/4 package of sugar free cherry jello (or more if you want)
    Stevia to taste
    First handful of ice

    After blended add 1/4 tsp of Xanthum Gum
    and 1/4 tsp of Guar gum and blend to incorporate
    Add another handful of ice - blend well (minute)
    Keep adding a handful of ice and blend well
    I usually go until it reaches almost 3/4 of the blender

    Makes a nice whipped topping for 'whatever'
    I usually set it up more in the freezer and 'treat' it like
    making an Italian ice - every 1/2 hour scrap the edges

    More like a ice cream - the volume goes down
    10-15 calories

    Dumpling soup:

    - I x pkt Shanggie Wonton Soup base stock powder, 5cal
    - 100g prawns (Countdown), 55cal
    - 40g Diamond spaghetti, uncooked, 141cal
    - 110g Leanne’s Kitchen dumplings (5-6 mini dumplings), 162cal
    - 100g broccoli, 34cal
    - 18g red onion, 11cal
    - 50g white button mushrooms, 11cal

    Where is that falvoured ice cube and xanthan gum fluff recipe??

    Here's my version that I've posted before
    b1zzdaj8lu8p.jpg


    Vitamix or really good blender
    10-15 calories total

    1 Tbsp dark cocoa powder
    1/4 tsp. Xanthum gum
    1/4 tsp. Guar gum
    1/4 + C. Dark cold coffee
    Stevia or sweetner of choice
    Vanilla, etc.,
    Ice cubes

    Blender:
    put cocoa, stevia, etc., cold coffee and first handful of ice cubes.
    Blend well
    Keep adding a few ice cubes at a time until amount desired
    Add Xanthum and Guar gum when blended - blend that in

    Use straight away as a 'cream' ontop of things
    or
    I like to 'set' mine in freezer to get a more 'ice cream' version (1+ hours)

    Would this still come out as good if i don't have Guar gum
