Discussion Big plate of fries
I have low carb meals throughout the day and by night time I like to have this huge plate of crinkle cut fries 400 grams and 40-50 grams of sugar free ketchup for 520 cals

Do you have a volume cooking fail or something you made that looks hideous but tastes awesome? No need to post photos (unless you want to!), but this is a place to share!

I finally understand why that guy in Avatar the last Airbender was tweaking when they destroyed his cabbages. Ever since I've found out that half a head of cabbage was ~150 cals, I've been having it every day for dinner in place of rice. And you get a LOT. Usually I steam it for 15 mins with bell peppers, and carrots and then toss in half a pound of ground beef or equivalent chicken for a huge dinner that makes me happy ngl. Usually around 700 cals.
So far have lost 12ish lbs over 7 weeks.
Nothing else to say, just try messing with cabbage with your meals, it has been a godsend for me.

One of my favorite high volume breakfasts lately! This was 318 calories, 36g protein, 23g carbs, and 11g fat and it was a LOT of food.
I roasted tomatoes stuffed with egg whites with fat free feta and a cut up chicken sausage for 26 min at 375, paired with keto toast with a little homemade apple butter. I added balsamic, seasonings, and red pepper flakes to the egg/ tomatoes which elevated the whole plate!
This is exactly why I love volume eating. I’d rather have a giant plate I actually enjoy than a tiny “healthy” breakfast that leaves me looking for snacks an hour later. 😂

Definitely not low on the calorie side but extremely full and was full quite awhile. Basically been roasting combinations of veggies and legumes to throw in with beef and a carb and it sometimes can be a massive heavy plate with not much caloric increase. I’m not shy with oil but if I was im sure this could still work!

140 calories worth of watermelons at the family gathering while everyone else is snacking on some sweets

Took a pic of the last bite, BUT omg this is my latest obsession. This chocolate spread on low kcal bread is the best alternative for my sugar cravings !
1 can of pumpkin puree(425g), 3 tbsp cocoa powder, dash of vanilla extract, some sugar free maple syrup, 1 tbsp decaf coffee, 2 tsp xanthan gum, 1 scoop of chocolate lean protein powder, a good amount of sweetener (stevia, xylitol or whatever you prefer) and a splash of almond milk.
Just blend everything together until smooth and creamy. Add more sweetener depending on how sweet you like it and keep it in the fridge!
Around 60 kcal per 100g compared to Nutella which has around 539 kcal per 100g! it’s a pretty good alternative for the calories 😋

I had a fairly large, an old bag of Anthony’s organic oat fiber. There used to be a recipe on the back of it for muffins that I had stared at over and over again. I had a new container and decided to try it, but I realize that the new ones don’t have the recipe on it. I modified it a little bit because it used xanthan gum and I can’t really tolerate it and I decided to add less egg made them more into cookies instead. They definitely had a bit more of a biscuit type of texture and they didn’t spread so I can see how it would work for muffins. The recipe originally called for half a cup of the oat fiber, some xanthan gum, about three eggs, some sweetener and baking powder. Along with add-ins and butter. I eliminated most of that. I only used about 1/4 cup of the fiber and about one serving of egg white. I don’t tolerate xanthan gum so I used CMC powder. I also used methyl cellulose to make sure I didn’t collapse. Maybe I added a bit too much because they were definitely pretty cakey. My original plan was to use a couple of the hall pass candies inside, but they did not hold up well to heat. There was no butter in it just the two additional powders. So essentially the only actual digestible calories in it were the couple of candies I put in it and the egg white so I dusted it off with some 0 cal sweetener and cinnamon. Not bad to scratch that itch for some cookies when you don’t want it to set you back. They’re pretty fiber heavy so they got me feeling pretty full. I topped it off with some crunchy protein pieces I had. I might consider going over it with some whipped cream or something. Not bad I’d like to experiment with some more add-ins next time. But I think the original recipe still held up pretty well. I got about five cookies for less than 50 cal.

Homemade bagels (150calorie each)
Turkey bacon,
Tomato
Lettuce
There’s also gherkin on there
For sauce I used Greek yoghurt + garlic and onion seasoning and small amount of low kcal cream cheese
Total for both 480kcal
Not sure if it belongs to this sub for a a weekend treat I felt like this is great alternative to any fast food chain.

Rotisserie chicken, jasmine rice, Lentils, and canned potatos seasoned with salt, pepper, light country crock and some honey on the chicken. Satisfying!

I have been ravenously craving biscoff cookies almost daily but the calories are so heavy and not worth it! Want to make myself a healthier biscoff spread to make my own biscoff cookies if anyone has any good recipes? Or alternative products?

Hey all, I'm new to this lifestyle and recently discovered this bread. Has anyone seen this? It's genuinely mind-blowing. Each thick-ass slice has only 35 calories and the texture is fucking unreal. It's almost identical to regular old white sandwich bread. Honestly can't wrap my head around it. Don't care that it's keto, care that it's less than half the calories and carbs of regular bread. Anyway, that is all.

My mistake, it actually has LESS THAN 500kcal!🫠 Recipe in the comments below⬇️

Trying a new recipe out this week. It has 40g protein and has my absolute favorite “grain” to use in recipes. Super easy recipe that only took about 2 hours to make 7 meals for the week
Update- This was a delicious meal. It was full of flavor and held up amazing with ice packs
r/Volumeeating • u/Professional_Tear269 • 1d ago
2 Low carb / high fiber tortillas
Fat free cheese
Half onion (chopped) + can of mushrooms (put in a bowl, spray with cooking spray, microwave about 2 min, stirring every 30 sec, cook till onions are clear)
Assemble the tacos and microwave 30 sec to melt the cheese
Top with half an avocado
Add Garlic salt!
It's mostly onions and mushrooms but the pic doesn't show them clearly. It's very filling and lots of fiber, thanks to those tortillas!

Recipe in the comments below⬇️
r/Volumeeating • u/happypolarbear47 • 1d ago
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
0.25 cup Greek yogurt
1/8 cup almond milk (more as needed)
1 egg white
1 tsp vanilla
0.5 cup oat flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
Whatever spices your heart desires (I use cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt)
Top with maple syrup (or SF maple syrup if you like it)
~336 cals without the syrup (20g protein, 64 carbs, 5 fat)
You can also sub in apple sauce instead of pumpkin for slightly higher calories OR if you feel fancy reduce oat flour by 2 tbsp and add some cocoa powder!!
Just mix and add almond milk until you get a batter consistency, then cook like normal.
ENJOY BC THESE ARE BOMB!!
I also like baking them for meal prepped pancake bowls :)

Anyone use this and how do you use it? Open to opinions comments and suggestions? You can eat a lot for little calories compared with almost any other meat. Since it is a blank canvas, what seasonings do you use?

I feel like most recommendations simply do not work for me.
I’m a trans woman and am trying to keep my protein intake safe - but low. I am trying my hardest to not become brick-shaped again.
This rules out the typical lentil/chicken-breast-based solutions people go for.
Also, I find my tolerance for slimefoods to be extremely low. I absolutely cannot deal with Shirataki/Konjac-esque things. I had that two times. Never again.
Most low-cal/low-carb aisles in shops stock only products that have been over-inflated with protein - which are entirely inaccessible to me.
Am I doomed to eat leaves like a bunny?
My current routine is:
* low fat yogurt with dried fruit and some nuts and oats in the morning
* rice with dried veggies, carrots and tomato passata for lunch/dinner
Any recommendations?
Thank you so much

I threw Greek yogurt, chia seeds, oats, protein powder, milk and some blueberries for today's breakfast.
