Tonight’s dessert will be a chocolate pumpkin protein cloud cake:
Pescience vegan powder
4 servings egg whites
200 grams canned pumpkin
Xanthan gum
Cream of tartar
Stevia/cinnamon/ salt
Maybe some chopped berries
All in all the base of the cake will be less than 200 cals and with toppings maybe 350-400. And it’s hugeeeee3 -
I once posted my favourite recipe for a soup that I have at least once or twice a week, and got wood, so I mainly keep my recipes to myself, lol.[/quote]
Could you post a link to your recipe? I'd love to see

I don’t know how to paste a link, as it’s in my recipe builder, so will just type it below. I live in NZ, so you may not recognise all of the brands.... but here goes....
I change the quantities of ingredients from time to time, but it’s usually basically the same (like if I can’t get my favourite dumplings, and have to buy a different brand.)
Dumpling soup:
- I x pkt Shanggie Wonton Soup base stock powder, 5cal
- 100g prawns (Countdown), 55cal
- 40g Diamond spaghetti, uncooked, 141cal
- 110g Leanne’s Kitchen dumplings (5-6 mini dumplings), 162cal
- 100g broccoli, 34cal
- 18g red onion, 11cal
- 50g white button mushrooms, 11cal
- 9 sprigs Coriander, 5cal
- 3 cups water, 0cal
Comes to 424cals, makes a huge bowl, and I love it! It’s my ultimate comfort food- I love the fact that I can take a recipe that isnt always healthy, find suitable ingredients and make it easily fit my calorie goals.

I'm so happy to have found this tread! I'm always hungry as of the last several weeks-- sometimes an hour after I eat. I get my recommended macros of protein and fat, and have been trying to figure out why I'm raiding the pantry at 8pm every night. I think I need to bulk up on more veggies. Do you all have any advice for how to start? Do I aim for an amount of fruit and veggies with eat each meal etc? Thanks!0

I stumbled across this thread and will start to follow it. There is a lot of good information here. I will post information and/or recipes when I think they are of value.2

Cherry Fluff
3-4 tbsp. water
A 'good' squeeze of lime
1/4 package of sugar free cherry jello (or more if you want)
Stevia to taste
First handful of ice
After blended add 1/4 tsp of Xanthum Gum
and 1/4 tsp of Guar gum and blend to incorporate
Add another handful of ice - blend well (minute)
Keep adding a handful of ice and blend well
I usually go until it reaches almost 3/4 of the blender
Makes a nice whipped topping for 'whatever'
I usually set it up more in the freezer and 'treat' it like
making an Italian ice - every 1/2 hour scrap the edges
More like a ice cream - the volume goes down
10-15 calories

I just found this thread last week and have been chowing through cucumbers, tomatoes, watermelon and cabbage like it is my job. My lunch salads are so big it now takes me 45 minutes of constant eating to finish it all, whereas in my nutrient-dense/keto days lunch would maybe last five minutes. Thanks for posting so many awesome pictures, recipes and ideas!5

If anyone is the in the market for a new blender:
The nutribullet RX has been a godsend, it has "Souperblast Mode" which makes hot soup in seven minutes, my favorite so far is:
Zucchini
Onion
Chicken Broth
Seasoning
Mix in 1 tablespoon of sour cream and blend for 30 more seconds
Creamy soup at 68 calories a serving, I can eat the entire blender full for under 300 calories to go with my main meal if its not filling enough

Would this still come out as good if i don't have Guar gumWhere is that falvoured ice cube and xanthan gum fluff recipe??
Here's my version that I've posted before
Vitamix or really good blender
10-15 calories total
1 Tbsp dark cocoa powder
1/4 tsp. Xanthum gum
1/4 tsp. Guar gum
1/4 + C. Dark cold coffee
Stevia or sweetner of choice
Vanilla, etc.,
Ice cubes
Blender:
put cocoa, stevia, etc., cold coffee and first handful of ice cubes.
Blend well
Keep adding a few ice cubes at a time until amount desired
Add Xanthum and Guar gum when blended - blend that in
Use straight away as a 'cream' ontop of things
or
I like to 'set' mine in freezer to get a more 'ice cream' version (1+ hours)

true - it's added to thicken but also helps with the 'icy' factor - creates a more creamy, ice cream-like consistency.

Public service announcement— protein ice cream fluff does NOT fluff well with almond/coconut milk blend. I think the fat from the coconut wrecked it. I mean, I ate it anyway, and it was yummy - but texture was off.5
