Welcome back to Wecipe Wednesday. I volunteered to lead a return of this longstanding regular thread at r/loseit at least until the end of March 2021. Since no one has stepped up to take my place yet, I'll keep going until I run out or recipes.
I'll include the ingredients list, nutritional information along with other hints. Some recipes are vegetarian/vegan, others not so much.
Post your favourite healthy recipes here to share with the rest of the loseit community! Recipes don't have to fit this week's theme at all, they should just be something that you can eat reasonably frequently while actively losing weight.
Due to the spirit of the sub, please try to include the calorie and nutritional information if at all possible. MyFitnessPal has awesome recipe calculators you can use!
For the most part, I target my meals to have a component in the 350-550 kcal range. My breakfast and lunch tend to be right around 400 kcal each and dinner can be a bit heavier, or include a side dish to bring the calories up a bit. When I was eating 1650 kcal/day the breakdown was roughly 400/400/600/250 for breakfast/lunch/dinner/snacks.
Anyhow: enough background on to the recipes!
Sweets
Sorry for the late post this week, but it has been a busy week around these parts. Work is keeping me busy, my partner celebrated her birthday yesterday and my son celebrated his today so we had a nice celebratory dinner for the two of them last night, and tonight we were on a zoom call where my partner was one of the guests of honor.
Needless to say. we celebrated a bit both yesterday and today.
Since she suffers from celiac disease finding gluten free sweets that aren't also calorie bombs can be a bit of a challenge. We settled on tiramisu because we had some gluten free ladyfingers to eat.

- 1 package Ladyfingers [780 kcal]
- 8 oz mascarpone cheese [480 kcal]
- 3 eggs [210 kcal]
- 4 tbsp sugar [200 kcal]
- 2 tbsp coffee infused rum [65 kcal]
- 1 + 1/4 cups espresso, brewed [0 kcal]
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder [25 kcal]
TOTAL = 1760 kcal/pan = 195 kcal/serving at 9 servings. (We made it in an 8x8 glass pan and cut it in 9 pieces).
Puts it in the same range as most 200 kcal snacks from http://minibatchbaker.com/ or even like a Kind bar. Manageable on most diets for a special occasion, larger diets more regularly.
How about you? Got any good recipes for celebratory sweets that aren't 1000 kcal slices of cheesecake?
