20%fat-40% carbs-40% protein recipes????

FletcherChic

Does anybody here follow a 20% fat, 40% carb, 40% protein diet? i need some recipe ideas (approx 400 calorie meals and 300 calorie snacks) with these macronutrient ratios....i am having a heck of a time finding anything online and definitely no luck in any recipe books.
thanks!

You won't find any recipes like that.
Eating 40/40/20 doesn't mean every meal must be 40/40/20...you can do it that way, but it's difficult. It's easier to eat to meet a 40/40/20 goal by the end of the day. Otherwise you have to do things like eat brown rice for the carbs, chicken for the protein, and add a tbsp of peanut butter for dessert.

Thank you for the info! i have been glued to a calculator trying to come up with 3 meals and 3 snacks all with these ratios...
