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.

Borscht

 by on February 1, 2020

This particular soup is not a “traditional” recipe, but it’s something I whipped up to be stupidly high in potassium and other key nutrients I was finding hard to hit each day. Beetroot is one of my favorite veggies, so any opportunity I can get to drink a bowl of borscht – I will take it.

Breakfast Pizza Pancake

 by on January 1, 2020

This meal is nutrient dense, filling, quick and easy to make with a lot of options for customisation. Adapting the ingredients can easily transform the macros here so there are plenty of options for how to make it higher or lower fat, higher or lower carbohydrate so some alternative toppings have been provided along with the basic recipe.

Chicken & Mushroom Ramen

 by on December 1, 2019

This is the kind of recipe that you can make in bulk and keep in the fridge, and it tends to get better and better as the flavours mature! It’s also incredibly quick and easy to make, and even though it’s not technically a traditional recipe – the taste is akin to the real thing.

Low Carb Chocolate Mousse

 by on July 1, 2019

I was about to send you this killer beetroot soup recipe I made last week and then realized you guys (in the US) are about to enjoy Summer 🙂 This seems more appropriate! Ingredients: 1/2 punnet strawberries 1 tablespoon cocoa powder 1/2 small avocado 1 scoop WPI (chocolate, vanilla or cookies and cream works best) […]

Raspberry, Apple & Chocolate Muffins

 by on May 10, 2019

Eating “clean” food can be hard when your calorie intake is high or you’re trying to add lean mass. One of the best ways to keep up your nutrient density and get a bit more food down is to treat whole foods like they’re processed!

Making muffins or other baked goods out of things like oats, fruit and eggs like this recipe does, means you will probably be able (and inclined) to eat a bit more and not feel too full.
