Hey! I'm trying to do a clean eating revamp of my diet. Does anybody have any great recipes that they would be willing to share? I have had a hard time finding good recipes, I don't mind putting in some work.

I am NOT eating dairy, grains, processed sugars, things I cannot pronounce...for now!

Would even love a soup recipe!

    Just out of curiosity, are you still going to try and hit your calorie limit? I really want to just 'eat clean' and not worry about cals, but I know it'd technically be starving myself if I were to do so

    Not my thing so I wouldn't have a clue. However, a 10sec Google gave approx 37,200,000 hits. Maybe a place to start?

    Google pumpkin spice granola!!! I've been having that for breakfast with almond milk and banana - delicious and clean.

    To keep it simple I just like to keep my pantry full of herbs and spices that way you can ramp up the flavour of your meat and vegies without too much fuss.

    I love roast sweet potato with lean protein and salads.
    Any soup recipe should hit the mark as long as it's homemade.

    Yeah I still plan on hitting my calorie intake for the day...It's actually not that hard the real problem is that I have been eating more patchwork meals.

    I also Googled things but I just wanted to see if someone had something specific that was really good. Thank you all for your help!

    I always thought it was Keen-wa.



    OP - if you are eliminating grains and dairy you may want to check out paleo recipe websites. It sounds more like your version of clean.

    You will get a variety of suggestions. Clean is a pretty subject term as you have already seen here.

    Paleomg is a good one.

    Here is a bunch of recipies that I use and have created myself. A lot of these are really clean. i am a bodybuilder so please dont be put off by this. Some of these recipies are ultra low in fat and have no sugar so are good for anyone.

    I invented most of these so let me know how you get on....... I cant be responsible if you mess them up! haha

    How did the healthy pizza go paixnidiara41? Ive done this a fair few times and sometimes you just have the "Carb cravings" after eating it. A Good idea is to have this with a baked sweet potato. Great all round meal if you are training hard too
