A simple meal full of flavour, protein and veggies.
Ingredients
1 Ideal Protein Mashed Potato Packet
1/8 tsp of each salt, garlic powder, onion powder, hot pepper flakes (optional)
1 tsp olive oil
3 Tbsp water
Instructions
Set oven to 350 degrees.
Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl.
Then using a silicone mat you can use a pastry brush to just ever so slightly coat the mat so the crust won’t stick. If you don’t have silicone mat you can use parchment paper. Or ovenproof non stick pan.
Shape with a spatula into a nice round crust like a pita bread. It will be about 1cm thick.
Cook 10 minutes. Flip and cook 5 more minutes. If it’s puffy after 10 minutes you can use a fork to poke a few holes in it.
Pull out of oven, let it cool completely to get crispy and the add toppings.
Topping Suggestions
- Use sugar free pizza sauce or marinara sauce. Check ingredients. Many actually don’t have sugar in them, but some do have sugar!
- You can fry up some mushrooms and peppers.
- You can top with arugula and a little white vinegar for tang.
- Chicken pieces or your preference of meat.
- Have fun!
What you eat matters
We know it can be hard to eat well. It takes time and energy. Finding new go to recipes, creating new favourites, and having easy recipes the whole family loves is super important.
Give your self a break. Let’s not expect everything to happen instantly. Getting good at cooking and meal prep takes time. But you will be a pro at whipping up meals that nurture you soon enough. And your taste buds will start to crave food that is good for you. You will feel full and satiated from getting enough protein, good fats, and quality carbs.
Sometimes you just need a can of tuna and a red pepper and an apple and peanut butter (phase 2 or 3 meal). And at other times you have time and energy for something more complex.
Exploring new recipes and taking the time to have a bit of variety in your meals will make weight loss much easier and satisfying.
