Beetroot Dip

This is a lower calorie, lower fat version of a beetroot dip which uses quark instead of cream cheese to get a creamy texture. This goes really well with eggs for breakfast, with any kind of red meat as an accompaniment or as a dip on it’s own with veggies.
Will last for about 2-3 days in the fridge.

Almond, Caramel and Banana French Toast

 by on July 1, 2021

This is a really quick, delicious and easy recipe that gives you half your dietary fibre and 20% of your potassium needs. The addition of a little bit of fat from the nuts and the high fibre content means it will digest much slower, which is perfect for a pre workout meal about 1-2 hours prior to training.

Creole Shrimp

 by on May 1, 2021

This dish is super low fat and very versatile.
The nutrition information provided is only for the shrimp sauce and doesn’t include anything else you might serve it with. If you used cauliflower rice this would be a really filling, high fibre, low fat and lower carb meal for less than 250 calories, perfect for contest prep if you have very low calories.

Butter Chicken

 by on October 3, 2020

I’ve given the much loved, Indian butter chicken recipe a bit of a revamp to make it much lower in carbs, calories and fats and higher in protein. I’ve switched full fat yoghurt to mustard to give a similar creamy texture, and reduced the amount of ghee and butter but without sacrificing taste. Those of you who need less carbs can use the cauliflower mash as described, but obviously pair it with rice if you need more energy.

Chocolate Mousse

 by on May 1, 2020

This recipe creates an almost too good to be true dessert which is high in protein and practically fat and carb free. This is perfect for the last few weeks of contest prep when you need to keep macros really low, or for any time you want a “treat” that tastes like it should be bad for you.
