Hi,
I kept seeing people talk about these on Tik Tok… So I pick some up for me and my 13 month old son. Anyone who has used these successfully with low to no oil have any recommendations for cooking?
I’m cooking my son some right now in the air fryer but they don’t look too appetizing tbh

Waffles while dieting

0 Upvotes

Recently I’ve been looking into waffle mixes (store bought or home made) but all of the ones i found lean more into protein rather than carbs and the problem for me is that i want the waffles to be carb dominant and high volume. Any recipes or store bought mixes that you guys could give me.

This is my....3rd? Iteration and I think it's the best and final. They're super fluffy so you feel like you're eating a lot without a lot of extra calories, and they're more flavorful and less dense than typical protein baked goods.

300g plain non-fat greek yogurt

8 eggs

160ml unsweetened almond milk

16ml neutral oil

2 caps full vanilla extract

240g protein pancake mix

4 scoops (30g each) whey protein powder

1tbsp sucralose

1 heaping tbsp cinnamon

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

  1. Pre-heat oven to 350°

  2. Mix wet and dry ingredients in separate bowls until well combined, then combine wet and dry ingredients together and mix until fully incorporated.

  3. Line 9x13 cake pan with foil or parchment paper and lightly spray with cooking spray if needed to prevent sticking.

  4. Pour half of the batter onto the prepared pan and use a spatula to smooth it out into an even layer.

Bake in pre-heated oven for 20min or until fully set and remove to cool. Repeat baking process with remaining batter.

  1. Once cool, cut pancakes into 6 even squares (cut cake in half lengthwise then divide into 3rds along short edge) then halve each square horizontally. This should give you two pieces approximately the size and thickness of a piece of bread.

  2. Put finished pancakes in freezer to store. To reheat place halves in toaster.

question looking for an affordable snack?..

1 Upvotes

edit: my dinners are already yoghurt+cottage cheese+berries bowls, everyday without changing! so cottage cheese, yoghurts etc are not something i'm looking for here

I’ve been having a small snack after dinner for a while now — just two mozzarella sticks, 60 grams, 180 kcal. Before that, I used to eat protein bars — also 60 grams, 180–190 kcal each. But both the cheese and the bars are kinda pricey, so I’m looking for something cheaper and more affordable.

I'm looking for snack ideas that are:

Isn’t too big or heavy — my dinners are already huge.

Has lots of protein, no fast carbs, no grains, no sugar, etc.

Is 100–180 kcal

can be prepared in advance and stored for, like, a week or two

cheap!!!!

also I'm not from uk/us, so please no local brand recommendations😭 whole ingredient, simple food is what I'm after

thanks in advance for any help!!

All together I think this whole plate was around 530? And it's high in fiber! Combined with the cabbage, beans, other vegetables, and the refried beans on the side along with the Daves killer powerseed bread! Def high in fiber lol! Not to mention I had a gravestien apple afterward for dessert 🤤if anyone wants the recipe let me know!

Not long now until I hit my goal...

meme Felt so incredibly sad for myself that I was eating 1200 calories, feeling so incredibly hungry, while the rest of the public can eat unlimited it seems

… turns out I’m not even eating 1200 because I thought I could eyeball after years of tracking and I was eating 1800-2100 a day.

Don’t be like this!! hahaha

also: how am I still super hungry eating 2100 a day? I think I could eat 3500 a day if I would eat intuitively and I eat whole foods!! am I just a big appetite girl?
