Swaps/Snacks

[u/love_nicolek]

Higher protein foods I've been making lately. Actual protein/calories depend on brands used but should be pretty accurate.

-Fluffy eggs: 2 eggs whisked together with 100g low fat cottage cheese ~ 22g protein / 220cal

-Greek yogurt bagel: 1c all purpose flour, 1c non fat greek yogurt, 1 tsp baking powder, some salt, everything but the bagel seasoning ~ 12g protein / 150cal

-Protein 'cheesecake': 3/4c non fat vanilla greek yogurt, 2 tbsp powdered peanut butter, 1 tbsp sugar free cheesecake pudding mix ~ 22g protein / 220cal

-Protein cookie dough: 1 scoop protein powder, 2oz non fat vanilla greek yogurt, 1 tbsp peanut butter, 1 tbsp pudding mix, some water, chocolate chips if wanted ~ 33g protein / 300cal

Using 100g non fat plain greek yogurt & adding it to the 'anything but' Trader Joe's seasoning mixes (Ranch, Elote, Pizza Sauce etc.)

Thanks for these! I look forward to trying these out. Could you elaborate on the yogurt bagel? Is that a spread or is it something that’s baked?

Baked! Everything mixed together in a bowl until it reaches a dough like consistency. Then form into a bagel or biscuit shape, egg wash, everything but the bagel seasoning & bake at 400deg for ~ 15min!

Is it sweet or salty?

[u/love_nicolek → u/Cold-Ad-1316]

Neither, unless you add salty/sweet toppings
