I just love oats in all forms. This whole plate (including toppings) is only 450 cals if anyone cares and made from “real” ingredients. Turned out better than expected!!

Recipe:
makes 10 large pancakes which I split into 2 serves (5 pancakes each serve)

-200g egg whites ,
-110g cottage cheese,
-1 whole egg,
-90g oat flour (I use store bought but could easily blend your own, im just lazy and have a terrible cheap blender) ,
-Pinch of baking powder, salt, cinnamon

Teaspoon of vinegar (apparently it helps activate the baking powder and helps make more fluffy, they were very fluffy so I think it works?)

Sweetner to taste (I only added about 1/2 tbsp)

Cook on a pre heated non stick pan (I didn’t use butter or oil) until little bubbles appear and flip.

Topped with plain Greek yogurt, microwaved berries , sugar free maple syrup. 10/10!!

I’m lazy in the kitchen so I didn’t bother blending anything, just mixed it all in a bowl . First time trying cottage cheese pancakes and thought it might be lumpy but once cooked I Couldn’t taste the cottage cheese! Made about 4-5 large fluffy pancakes per serve.

Not listed in the ingredients was about 3G baking powder, pinch of salt, vanilla essence + sweetener drops (I would probably use a bit more next time or granulated sweetener as well)

Cooked on a pre heated non stick pan with no added butter/oil. Really impressed!

Simple yummy. Post swim oats.

45g oats ,
5g coco ,
10g chia ,
Sweetner to taste
Cooked in the microwave with water and then cooled and left in the fridge overnight to thicken to a cakey texture

Topped with berries and yogurt (was left in my bag so it’s smooshed)

Mainly concerned about them causing gut upset..? I’m used to a lot of fiber but have heard horror stories about konjac!

Kinda looks like a plop but turned out so good in terms of taste and texture. So fudgey and a really good snack post gym with a side of Greek yogurt and berries . Just microwaved the apple till soft, mashed it and then added the other ingredients in the slide. Was too lazy to turn the oven on so just chucked it in the air fryer at 160° until a knife came out clean. Was still slightly wet when I took it out but it firmed up in the fridge overnight:)

Served with a toasted flatbread + spinach/kale .

I’m aware they don’t look the prettiest.. but meal prepped 3 portions for lunch this week which I’ll reheat and serve with a side salad + feta and avocado.

Ingredients per serve:
50g oats,
50g zucchini,
100g pumpkin,
60g egg whites
50g cottage cheese,
1/3 can of lentils
Tomatoes + spring onions

Spices: cumin, paprika, turmeric, onion, garlic, salt.

I just combined the ingredients in a bowl, transferred to my baking paper dish and put in the oven until they looked cooked. About 180-200° roughly 45 mins

It’s good. I enjoyed it but nothing special. Just tastes like a regular cake but softer. The caramel is good but could just add a low cal sugar free sauce to a normal slice of cake and it would be just the same. 15g protein but 37g carbs which personally I’m not bothered by but I know others would. Decent size and a nice treat but not worth the money in my opinion! I had it with a dollop of Greek yogurt and some strawberries which definitely made it better!

Same recipe as last week. My pretty chilli flake decoration got ruined by me trying to get a yolk shot. 10/10. Stuffed

Okay so this whole meal including the salad is roughly 950 cals but most people wouldn’t be able to eat this in one sitting. It also has 80g protein. This meal could easily serve 4, my house mate saw me cooking and thought i was making dinner for us all. Nope, just for me. The noodle soup bowl in itself is about 750 calories including 90g (raw weight) of real soba noodles + added the black bean noodles for even more volume . Mixed together I couldn’t tell a difference. I then added about half a kilo of veg + 70g edamame beans+ these dumplings which are 120 cals per 100g (about 5 dumplings) . I added 125g prawns. Sauce was 20g white miso paste, 20g soy sauce, 15g fish sauce, 10g rice wine vinegar, a pinch of sweetner, a squeeze of lime , fresh ginger, garlic and onion.

Salad has more veg/leafs, beets, avo, pickles, tomatoes, can of corn , raw coleslaw , sesame dressing + sweet chilli sauce

*I’m currently eating in a surplus but coming out of a restriction phase the hunger is still wild so this much food is a dream*

The actual jelly yogurt part is only 30 cals per serve. I added 50g fresh strawberries, another 100g non fat Greek yogurt and 5g soy crisps on top which added another 100 cals.

I used lemon sugar free jelly or jello for the Americans . Made as per packet in-structures, allowed to cool then added the yogurt . Poured into 4 jars and set in the fridge. When I was ready to eat I added my toppings. Good meal prep lil dessert option. In future I think I would add some more sweetness to the Greek yogurt I put on top. I was expecting the jelly to be sweet enough which it was but I wanted a lemon pie type vibe and the tartness of the Greek yogurt didn’t cut the vibe so will add some sugar free maple syrup or vanilla protein powder to sweeten the yogurt topping in future!

My little post gym snack . One graham cracker sheet per jar. Mixed the yogurt/cream cheese and protien together + sweetner which I didn’t track but about a teaspoon (to taste) . Super easy and simple. Obviously not a great serving size especially as someone who loves volume eating but definitely hit the spot.

Made on the stove top for the first time in months ! (Usually always just microwave but went the extra mile today) eaten straight out of the pot because why waste more dishes. Absolutely huge portion for ~500 cals + 45g protein

Air fried a silken tofu blob to go on top, normally I’d use an egg but the tofu was about to expire and needed eating. Also added nutritional yeast for more flavour. Veg added was zucchini, tomatoes, spring onions + kale/spinach .
