Never tried it but I definitely will :) whats the gram flour part?

Add some protein powder to the dough and make fresh bread with raisins, cinnamon, to cover up the taste. Will take a little experimentation but I would think you could substitute protein powder for some of the flour at a 1:1 ratio, more or less. Anyone ever do this? I have only done it with "ployes" which are the name of a…

Black beans in my oatmeal... food processed chick peas... maybe 1/4th to 1/3rd... a little maple syrup :) I am going to try that actually, can't think of why it would taste too bad, thanks!

The book? Yes, I have read it. I also can't wait for Patrik Baboumian's book to come out then get translated into English. That should be happening soon.... Now that I think of it, Robert Cheeke's website is good too - but I never check to see if they have message boards... and they do :) Let me do that too, thanks…

I totally agree :) Good advice!

Best books when I started out: "Vegan on the Cheap" and "Becoming Vegan." But... there is a catch I think all would-be vegans out to look at and be ok with when they first start out, otherwise they get fed up and go back to eating tasty but unethical food. I honestly believe one can eat great food as a vegan, given enough…

Are you on a ketogenic diet? Maybe a vegan-paleo combo? Are you trying to lose weight by restricting carbs or gain it? What percentage of your calories is coming from fat? My recommendation if you want lots of quality calories is to drink protein shakes with peanut butter or almond butter mixed in. Too much fat is not…
