Protein Slop (Sweet and Savory versions)

megacoco

I affectionately call these protein slop, because that's the sound they make when you serve them. I make a big batch of the sweet version for lunches, and the savory is good for a super fast dinner.

SAVORY

2 whole eggs + 1 egg white
1 can chunk tuna in water
Frozen or fresh vegetables (I suggest onion, bell pepper, mushroom, green beans)

Use butter, olive oil, or cooking spray in a frying pan on medium-high heat. Add in the veggies and let them both defrost and/or start to heat up a bit before adding the eggs. I crack them right into the pan because lazy, but you can whip them up in a bowl instead. Mix up the eggs and veggies for a scramble. Once the eggs are about done, add in a drained can of tuna and mix in until tuna is hot. Top with cheese, pepper, and/or salsa. I stick with just salsa for a little kick

I eat this no more than once a week due to mercury concerns, sadly. It's easy to alter this to up the calories by choosing different tuna as well. Despite the low calories it is very filling.

Rough calorie/macro breakdown assuming chunk tuna in water and no butter/olive oil or toppings:

286 cal
3 g carb
12g fat
38g protein

SWEET

32oz plain greek yogurt
1 cup strawberry halves
1 cup banana slices
1/2 cup steel cut oats (uncooked)
4 Tbsp peanut butter

This recipe is more "fudge until it looks/smells good" than set in stone, but this is roughly what I end up throwing in. Dump the yogurt into a large bowl and mix in the oats and peanut butter. Let the oats soak in this overnight. Slice up some strawberries and bananas and mix those in before eating. I have mixed them in before putting in the fridge overnight but the bananas get brown and gross quickly so only do this if you plan on scarfing it all down fast.

Calories/macros assuming non-fat yogurt:

1419 cal
140g carbs
37g fat
125g protein

This is for the entire bowl - if you could eat the entire thing, I would be pretty surprised. And kind of sickened. I usually split it into 4 servings. So each serving is, for the mathematically challenged:

354 cal
35g carbs
9.25g fat
31.25g protein

Macro breakdown isn't as good as the savory slop, but it's too damn tasty for me to care. You can lower the carbs by getting rid of the fruit, but I find plain yogurt to be too sour without them. You could lower the oats and substitute more pb or other nuts.

The calorie/macro breakdown is just for reference and may not be accurate etc etc. I found the sweet recipe somewhere online but lost the link a long time ago.

Go forth and stuff these in your mouth holes, meatbags.
