How would you like a little help from a Chef?

[lstbred]

There are several things you can try, do you have a hand mixer? or a table top? or just a whip? All are fine it's just a matter of ease.Try this:
Put all the ingredients together except the eggs.
Add a bit more water or milk or a combo of the two until it comes to a "pancake" type consistency. This is gonna vary, you'll have to play with it.
In a seperate bowl whip the egg whites to soft peaks (video how-to attached)
Fold (not stir) in the eggs to the other ingredients (video how-to attached)

This is a little more time consuming/work, say 5 extra minutes, but it should be worth it. They might rise a little so only fill your cups/pan 3/4 of the way. I have never made protien bars, cakes but as a general rule this should work. This is the same way meringue, mousse, souffle get their "airyness". Give it a try and let me know how it goes.

Really. I have learned most of my cooking skills by watching the food network like Bobby Flay's BBQ addiction. I am definitely no chef but I cook non stop and eat mostly meats and these methods have worked for me. Before I started watching I over cooked my meats and they were dry and taste less. Thanks for the link. So many opinions I guess you need to find what works best for you.

[lstbred]

If it works for you, do it, screw it. I'm the type that doesnt really follow the culinary rules anyway ( I know them but dont always follow them) "you cant put cheese and fish together" really? I can take a shit in a hot dog bun if I wanted! not a great idea but I COULD do it, dont tell me I cant lol

[pawn master]

lol I do not eat cheese but I do come up with some weird combos myself. I cannot stop drinking milk so my dairy intake is already to high to enjoy other dairy products.

I'm no nutrionist, I cant tell you any specific "diet" that fits, were all different. The best way to start is find out what your TDEE is and the macro break down. Once you have that down and have an idea of what you should/can have, after that there are tooonnss of recipes on here to choose from and we/I can give out specific recipes. Hope that helps. ouichef
