Low carb/high protein meal ideas

Sweet_Pea4

Hey all

I'm always generally good with breakfasts and have a few ideas. But lunch and dinner I always struggle because I always end up having too many carbs. My carb percentage on MFP is 25% and I'm always hitting the 50% mark. Always struggle with it.

Also any high protein meal ideas would be good. Low carb and high protein. Even better.

Thanks

Hi. I am also High protein low carb. I do a shake in the morning with my coffee, a shake or quest bar for lunch with 2 cups of veggies, then 8oz of lean meat for dinner with another 2 cups of veggies, and a protein snack. I got a lot of recipes from Pinterest.

I make chicken nuggets with reduced sugar ketchup for lunch. 8 oz chicken breast sliced to ideal size, rolled in 8g oat flour, pan fried with Pam and eat with 2 tbsp ketchup. I also eat 200g of fresh green beans on the side that I steam and slightly salt. Filling and low carb, about 340 calories I think

My go to low carb meal is hot chilli (no kidney beans).

I make mine high fat, low carb so I do not drain all the fat (makes it taste great).

I'm doing Atkins, so high protein, high fat, and low carb. I've lost 6 kilos so far and finding it incredibly easy to stick to. Far easier than counting calories. And my cholesterol is in range for the first time in 20 years

What do you eat?

For dinner a quarter pound burger (home made from 20% fat mince) with green beans and broccoli. Or steak or fish instead of the burger.

2-egg omelette with mushrooms and cheese.
