    I am not following the plan but I did make several of Dr. Oz's Total 10 Protein Bowls. They are really tasty and fit what you are looking for. I liked the Italian, Chinese and Thai Bowls best.

    I'm just wondering why low carb and low fat? Protein and veggies (AKA low carb) is for weight loss, protein and fat is for maintenance, and protein and carbs is for weight gain. To nix the carbs and fat may get results in the short term, but may not last for the long run, and may harm your body more then it helps.

    High protein hmmmm, salmon,cod fish, eggs, steak, hamburg. Every morning I mash one bananna,mix in two eggs, fry in nonstick pan with coconut oil. Add butter and cinnamon. This is what gets me going in the morning. I use coconut flour and also almond butter in my recipes. I try to stay paleo. Bread is my downfall,weakness so to say. Paleo is the best for me,not for everyone. But it keeps me on track. Sweet potatoes are in my recipes also.

    I assume it's similar to how you prepare plantains?

    My fitness coach has given me certain guidelines to follow as far as my carb, fat, and protein intake go. She is trying to teach me how to get the protein I need without having to eat too much fat. I've been meeting my carb and fat requirements(barely) but I can't seem to meet my protein limit without going over my fat limit. It's a learning process at this point, I'm not using protein to put on weight. After I can prove to balance everything then my limits will change.

    That actually sounds pretty interesting.

    Would it be the same if I just dip the banana in the Nutella without roasting? Lol

    Some of these ideas might work - I like the sound of prawns and tomatoes...

    Basically fish, prawns/shrimp, chicken breast (without the skin), low fat cheese or cottage cheese are all good, I think.

    White sauce over a cup of broccoli, half a cup of spinach and a few mushrooms, top with crushed cornflakes and a little reduced fat mature cheddar. Bake in the oven at 200 degrees centigrade for 20 minutes. It's about 250 calories, contains 17 grams of protein and 135% of your daily vitamin C intake. Plus, it's very filling :)

    Also: wheat free pancake mix by blending 2 eggs and 1 banana

    Turkey rolls. I roll turkey lunch meat around green onions, or spread with dijon and spinach and roll up.

    I'm trying to eat lower carbs too. I'm diabetic and eating lower carbs or eating what they call good carbs can keep you from becoming diabetic, from what I understand.

    So many good recipes on pinterest! I brown up hamburger and make taco salads a lot. I also do a lot of grilling. My doctor wants me to eat more salt so I like to marinade my steak in soy sauce...it makes it so deliciously tender!
