Sweet potato pancakes topped banana, greek yogurt and chocolate 300 gr Sweet potato 60 gr Oats 30 Pancake mix 100 gr quark 1 egg 2 egg white cinnamon F29.2/C160.1/P43.1
Mini cheesecake. This time didn't use cottage cheese, but fat free Philadelphia cheese. The texture is much better and creamier. I added a mashed banana to the batter, will make it again for sure! Gustavo Guajardo Nice! Hope it turns out well. This one btw is much better. I suspected that replacing cottage cheese with philadelphia cheese would give it a more cheesecake-like texture and I was right! Here's the recipe, which yields two mini cheesecakes: 225grs fat free philadelphia cheese (1tub) 1 cup fat free greek yogurt 1 whole egg 1 tbsp lemon juice 2 tsp vanilla extract artificial sweetener
1 mashed banana banana extract (optional) Mix the cheese with the yogurt just with a spatula or spoon. In a separate bowl mix the egg, the lemon juice, the sweetener, vanilla extract. Then add this to the cheese/yogurt mixture and add in a mashed banana. Mix everything together and place it in a water bath in the oven at 350F for 40minutes. When the 40 minutes are up, turn off oven leave inside for ten more minutes. Take them out, cover with tin foil and cool down on a wire rack. When they've cooled down, put in refrigerator (don't take them out of the pan until you're going to eat them). Enjoy!
Gustavo Guajardo Macros for the two cheesecakes (divide by two if you only have one!) 580 calories, 57prot/ 40 carbs (most of them from the banana)/ negligent amount of fat from the egg. You could increase the protein content by adding protein powder, for this quantity I would add half a scoop, which would be 10 grams of extra protein.
Gustavo Guajardo Sorry I didn't see the recipe requests! So, here it goes: 2 cups fat free cottage 1 cup fat free greek yogurt 1 scoop protein (I used white chocolate) 1 whole egg 1 egg white Vanila extract Artificial Sweetener
Optional: 1 banana 100grams blueberries First mix the cottage cheese with the yogurt in a blender or with a mixer to dissolve the cottage cheese curd. Then add everything else. I did put 1 banana and 100grams blueberries in the batter, but that's optional. Gustavo Guajardo Macros: 850 calories with 113p/ 71carbs/ 4.5 fat (from the egg). I added the fruit because it was my refeed day so I was looking for the extra carbs. Conrad Tiu thanks Gustavo, after blending everything, did you bake it? if so at what temp and how long? Gustavo Guajardo I baked it at 350F for 45minutes in a water bath (put a pan with water and then the cheesecake tin in the pan) this helps with keeping it moist. When the 45minutes are up, turn off the oven and leave it in for 10 more minutes. Then take it out and put it in a wire rack covered with something (tin foil, a saucepan lid, a bigger pan, etc). Let me know if this is clear.

Anthony Barbetto Strawberry cheesecake! 852kcal/14f/70c/109p. Absolutely delicious.

It sounds weird but trust me, it's awesome.
