I found this awesome thread called Volume Eaters on MFP and I love it. I am new to the community, and appreciate the help so much. Can you share your low calorie or low calorie, high protein recipes please?

I already found a few like the cauliflower oats, protein fluff, and protein angel food cake. Thank you!

    All protein is 4 cals per gram. The lowest calorie sources of protein are things like egg whites, chicken breast, WPI etc.

    If you want recipes for "alternative" foods with increased protein, try googling "protein pow". Heaps. I wouldnt say low calorie, but they are higher protein. I personally gave up on stuff like that (with the exception of protein pancakes) as it's just not worth it - I'd rather thales real thing.

    Try zucchini as a volume bulker... Zoats sound more palatable than Cauliflower oats imo!

    I get volume by eating a lot of low cal vegetables with meals, not really from special recipes.
