    Tell us what you like eating and what you don’t like, and I’ll see what recipes I’ve got. I’m a pretty simple eater with mostly lean protein then lots off veg but I’ve got some useful recipes. What do you like to eat?

    Hey, I also follow my macros for the benefits of retaining muscle while I shed fat and cut calories.

    I follow a 50:25:25 split across Protein, Carbs & Fat and have 4 great recipes that are tasty, low calorie and super filling!

    I've listed the "meal" below; if they're of any interest please let me know :)

    1. Caesar Salad (with homemade dressing) - 252 calories per portion
    31g Protein, 19g Carbs, 8g Fat

    2. Chicken Fajitas - 400 calories per portion
    50g Protein, 29g Carbs, 9g Fat

    3. Protein Cauliflower Rice - 349 calories per portion
    43g Protein, 16g Carbs, 10g Fat

    4. Tuna Salad - 176 calories per portion

    i'm just starting macros counting, but this has been my fave recipe so far. i subbed my own rice blend and homemade salsa and adjusted the macros accordingly, but it's delicious! https://www.macrostax.com/recipes/turkey-and-quinoa-stuffed-peppers
