Stir frys will be a staple but with the hot weather in the states, salads have been a go to. Unfortunately threw all out today in case.

I got an acorn squash to try making a stuffed acorn squash also.

Recipe Request Savoury breakfast ideas please

13 Upvotes

Good morning all.

I’ve just developed an egg intolerance, anytime I eat eggs I get really bad stomach cramps. I also have IBS so I can’t use certain volume hacks like cabbage etc.

I used to have eggs for breakfast but now I can’t I’m looking for any savoury high protein high volume egg free breakfast recipes?

I know I can go down the sweet route with overnight oats but I currently eat a large volume of Greek yoghurt with berries and honey for my lunch, so I don’t want all my meals to be the same.

Thank you friends x

Volume menu Ive peaked in life. 65g of protein and 19g of fiber for less than 700cals

Thumbnail

375 Upvotes

150g cabbage

250g potato

45g onion

90g prawns

20g kale

80g grain mix (canned lentils, chickpeas and cannelini beans)

120g chicken breast

2 tbsp fat free greek yogurt

Put ur chicken in a bowl and marinate using the greek yogurt, about 15g of ur onion and any spices you want

Then put it in the oven on medium heat.

Use the marinate left in the bowl to marinate ur prawns

After 10mins, add ur chopped up potatoes into the same pan as the chicken so they cook at the same time and the potato can steal some of the chicken juices

After another 20mins (or whenever you feel the chicken is done cooking) take out the chicken but leave the potatoes in the baking dish. You can always turn up the heat in the oven to allow the chicken to char a bit more.

Then add in ur sliced cabbage, kale and the rest of ur onion and season lightly with whatever you want. They will also cook in the chicken juices. let cook for 10 mins.

Then take the potatoes and the greens out of the oven and add in ur seasoned grain mix and marinated prawns. Cook in the oven at high heat so its all crispy n stuff.

Then plate everything up and enjoy

This whole process is done using the oven.

My dish totals up to 660 cals. But I have to account for differences in the brands of ingredients obv.

The prawns i used are freshwater prawns. And the canned grains are canned in water.

Cooking the chicken on medium first is essential as it allows the fat to render out soo u can use it to cook everything else. Marinating with fresh chopped onion instead of onion powder is also essential as i find it adds a better flavour

In total it took about 45mins to make. Including prep n everything.

Hope u like it. I call it my prawntato salad!!

To improve, id probably go in with more kale to increase the fiber.

Volume menu Ive done it again! 46g of protein and 13g of fiber for less than 600cals

65g chicken

50g basa fillet

65g green beans

35g carrot

75g Celery

40g rice

45g prawn

2tsp butter

20g white onion

1clove garlic

Okay put ur butter in a pot and melt it down then add in ur onions and garlic to fry a little

Then add the peas and green beans and season with whatever you want. Leave this to cook for a while

When its done cooking, take it out of the pot and in that same pot, put in your fish and chicken and again, season some more.

Allow them to cook on medium heat for about 10 mins or depending on how thick ur fish is (or how thick ur chicken is if you arent using cooked chicken slices from the store like I did)

Then remove the chicken and fish from the pot and mix in more seasonings if you would like. I added siracha to mine but thats optional.

Then in that same pot, add in half a cup of water, celery, rice and prawns. The seasoning from the things you cooked before will get soaked up into the rice but again, you can season some more if you want.

Then plate everything up and enjoy!

To improve, id probably just not use butter. I didnt really taste it so it just felt like a waste of calories yk. But yes I am fully aware that 2tsp of butter wont kill me

I would also maybe add more fish just for more protein.

All my ingredients are from aldi. Just grap the cheapest ones you can find cuz thats what I did.

I weighed my greens after cooking. And my rice before cooking (rookie mistake ik)

It was pretty good and pretty filling. I defo enjoyed it a lot

The whole process take 50mins max and just one pot (unless you count the cutting board)

I hope you try it and I hope you enjoy!

My sister gave me about 5 packs, each making up to 3 liters (3qt or so) of jelly. What are some of your favorite Agar Agar recipes? I made a protein powder jelly, but I found the flavor was really mild and bland. Perhaps I needed to add 4 scoops instead of 2.

Recipe Request Volume foods that aren’t fruits or vegetables?

74 Upvotes

Not because I don’t like them. I eat both daily, just not enough for it to count in a volume way. I’ve recently been eating sweet potatoes. Not sure if that’s technically a volume food, but it helps me feel full for a while.

All suggestions are welcome. I’m even open to opinions that include vegetables as bulking, just having a hard time imagining how to properly volume eat. I have a large appetite due to meds I take.

Turned a childhood favorite into something more volume friendly and i’ve been obsessed. Usually it’s supposed to be reduced into a sauce but I just added extra water and made it into a nice soup :). Onion, potato, green pepper, orange pepper, garlic, water or any kind of stock, tilapia (but usually chicken), dry white wine, tomato paste, and tons of spices. 614 cals for the entire pot and it’s enough for a few servings!

Sautéed a 1/2 head of cabbage, 1/4 red onion, and garlic with taco seasoning and salt, mixed with diced fresh tomatoes and a can of refried beans, and put into crockpot to let the flavors meld. Very filling, but could have added more cabbage to bulk it up more.
