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 of 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!
Polenta
Polenta is always on the menu in Fall/Winter, whether it is prepared to be soupy or creamy or crispy it’s a wonderful hearty meal much like oats.
https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/oven-polenta-with-roasted-mushrooms-and-thyme
1.5 lbs mixed mushrooms [150 kcal] 4 sprigs thyme, plus leaves for serving 6 garlic cloves, smashed Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper 4 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil [480 kcal] 2 tbsp unsalted butter [240 kcal] 1 cup polenta [580 kcal] 4 oz. Parmesan, finely grated, plus more for serving [480 kcal] 1 Tbsp. red wine vinegar Flaky sea salt
TOTAL ~480 kcal/serving.
As written it is vegetarian, you can make it vegan compatible by eliminating the butter and using a vegan Parmesan replacement. If this is too much for your calorie budget reduce the oil/butter a bit.
