    I only go to Trader Joes once every couple months but when I do I remember how obsessed with these I am. I only buy a couple bags each time because this is a “you will easily eat as much as you have” snack.

    I know it's going to sound lame, but, I'm on a scrambled eggs with kale and mushrooms kick. I would have eaten it for every meal today if I didn't have leftover lasagna that needed to be eaten.

    Cottage cheese pancakes. Quick, easy, portable(eat it like dry toast, no toppings), protein, low cal. Best possible grab’n’go snack.

    Ok I was fascinated by this post, googled a recipe, and have now made it twice. Mine come out paper thin. Not at all like the “styled” (haha!) photos, but still.....

    What’s your recipes and any suggestions?

    Mine taste like deflated popovers (not a bad thing) without the yummy crust. Very filling and high protein, and I had a whole plate for 271 calories, so willing to provide room to improve texture by adding a few more calories.

    We bought some salt beef from the Jewish deli this week. Decided to try making it myself. It is an 8 day process (7 days dry brining in the fridge, and 1 day in the sous vide) but not a lot of work. Curious how this will turn out.

    As someone who typically likes dark chocolate, I am surprised that I have really been enjoying good quality MILK chocolate lately.

    They’re just crunchy cubes, but they have an ever-so-slight chewyness at the end. Hard to explain. But when you first eat one you’re like “Meh, it’s just a salty crunchy” but then you have a few more, then a few more, then a few more... And then the whole bag is gone :D

    I’ve been re-fixated on the “sushi rice” bowls I started eating when I was pregnant. Rice, stir in a splash of vinegar, top with sauce made of mayo, siracha, soy sauce and a splash of sesame oil, top that with crumbled nori/furikake. Add avocado if you have the calories for it. It’s sushi-esqe and makes my tummy very happy

    Paninis. My brother bought me a panini press for Xmas and I have been obsessed. So far my favourite version has been Yves Turk'y, bruschetta, and Chao slices on sprouted grain bread. So quick and high protein.

    I’m not a very good cook, so I really don’t have any hints. I pour 1 cup oats in the blender, zap ‘em to a fine powder, put them in a bowl. Put 1 cup cottage cheese in the blender— I have tried it with 2% and full fat, like 2% better and 3 eggs(less than the recipe calls for?). Zap it until it’s smooth, add it to the oat flour. The longer you let it sit, the thicker the batter gets. Made pancakes the first time, but they took too long to cook. Now I put them in the waffle iron. I tried them with blueberries in the batter. They tasted good, but were too messy, so I won’t do that again.
    I keep them in the fridge and I eat about a 50 calorie portion for a quick snack.
    Have added vanilla and pumpkin pie spice for added flavor, both good. Better with fruit and/or yogurt.

    These sound good, I want to try them with egg whites to make them even lower calorie! Thanks for the idea!

    Warmed frozen strawberries (100 calories worth for 3 min) topped with truvia, cinnamon and whipped cream or Greek yogurt.

    I can have a pretty big bowl for <200 calories.
