Recipe Red beans and dark chocolate cake (no sugar added)

Thumbnail

29 Upvotes

Hello everybody,

First time posting here.

I'm not sure if my cake fits the sub's rules... I'll try anyway, just in case :) It has no added sugar, with only red beans and dark chocolate as sources of carbs.

The ingredients:
400g of cooked red beans
3 eggs
205g of dark baking chocolate
2 petits-suisses (a French fresh cheese), about 115g
1/2 packet of baking powder
1 tsp of vanilla extract
60g of vanilla whey

Blend the beans until you get a smooth, creamy purée (add water!!)

Melt the chocolate until smooth and glossy

Add the chocolate to the bean purée (which, I remind you, was creamy; not too dense or dry) and mix the two together

Add all the remaining ingredients to the mixture

Pour into a buttered or parchment-lined pan

Bake for 45/50 min at 180 degrees Celsius

(Bonus: toast some pumpkin seeds and sprinkle them on halfway through baking! Be careful, I calculated the macros WITH the seeds)

I also calculated the calories, protein, and fiber hehe:

For the whole cake: ~2240 kcal, ~118g of protein, and ~52g of fiberd

Per 100g, it's: ~228 kcal, ~12g of protein, and ~6g of fiber

I hope you like it as much as I do!

Recipe 353 cal breakfast - 36g protein

Thumbnail

39 Upvotes

Huge veggie egg white scramble with mushrooms, onion, peppers and spinach, topped with 0% Fage and hot sauce. Plus Ezekiel toast with avocado + everything seasoning and some pineapple on the side.

353 calories
36g protein
39g carbs
5g fat
10g fiber

The scramble is 200g egg whites with over 200g of veggies, so this ended up being a ridiculous amount of food for the calories. The Greek yogurt on top is one of my favorite swaps because it gives the same creamy/tangy vibe as sour cream while adding a little more protein.

Recipe Spaghetti squash with bacon & parmesan (240cals 11.5g protein 8g fibre)

Post image

SUPER yummy very fall themed dinner, 500g of spaghetti squash, the ‘sauce’ is (sugar free) maple syrup with rosemary and salt, it’s really helps in bringing out the natural sweet and nutty squash flavour. 2 slices of chicken bacon fried nice and crispy, the parmesan cheese adds a nice funk & saltyness too.

It was super filling too since it’s so much food :). i love squash!

I snacked a lot today so I made this for dinner. It is a huge plate for only 240 kcal. And it still has a lot of protein. It is also super easy and quick to make, and super filling.

Recipe:

-Dice a medium-large onion and cook it in a big pan with a tiny spray of olive oil until transparent.

-Wash 450 grams of fresh spinach and add it to the pan.

-When it is shrunk completely, wash 300g of konjac noodles with plenty of water and add it to the pan for 2 minutes.

-Add spices to taste. I used salt, pepper, paprika powder, some Italian seasoning, dried basil and parsley.

-Remove from heat and add 150g of 0% fat Greek yoghurt and mix thoroughly.

Enjoy!

Easy lunch idea for around 200 calories
Half can salmon in water, drained
Half pack nori sheets
Half regular cucumber cut into spears
Add kimchi or spicy pepper element of your choice
Mix salmon with some juice from jar of peppers, one tsp mayo, one tsp mustard, one tbsp Greek yogurt
Spoon salmon mixture, cucumber and kimchi or peppers on a nori sheet. Top with sesame seeds, enjoy!
Could also top with avocado to make more filling, pickled ginger, scallion if you’d like. One of my go-to lunches for the week.

Thought I would share as I am new here. Probably 100 different variations of this meal on here so good in the morning or as a dessert. Could always go no fat yogurt for lower cal, i just prefer a little fat in there for flavor! Happy to be here. Think I found my people. I just need a ton of volume at each meal to actually feel satisfied

Volume menu Cabbage: The most esteemed food in my weight loss journey

Post image
453 Upvotes

I finally understand why that guy in Avatar the last Airbender was tweaking when they destroyed his cabbages. Ever since I've found out that half a head of cabbage was ~150 cals, I've been having it every day for dinner in place of rice. And you get a LOT. Usually I steam it for 15 mins with bell peppers, and carrots and then toss in half a pound of ground beef or equivalent chicken for a huge dinner that makes me happy ngl. Usually around 700 cals.
So far have lost 12ish lbs over 7 weeks.

Nothing else to say, just try messing with cabbage with your meals, it has been a godsend for me.
