Steriod diet on a budget and time crunch

How Expensive are we talking?

Kroger usually runs a deal on them like 5 for 5 bucks stuff like that. I think they are usualy like a buck more then a reg can of tuna. I always buy bumblebee albacore so its actually cheapier then what I usually spend. They come in packets so they are super easy to travel with.

A new twist on tuna salad:

tuna (albacore) packed in water and drained
olive oil
lemon
red peppers
dill
white pepper
sometimes green onions
sometimes white balsamic vinegar

FRICKING DELICIOUS!

Tried somthing new the other night though its not the most healthy thing ever but its cheap delicious and is another dessert besides the protein pudding.

Thick slices of turkey bacon on a lightly greased baking sheet. cover in brown sugar and add in cyane pepper (to taste) bake on a low heat for about an hr (untill the bacon is cooked and th sugar has melted) Take out and let the suagr harden, what you get is a sweet spicy turkey bacon candy. Reg bacon works a bit better, but this wasnt bad. Again not the most healthy decision for the dessert but better than cakes and pies.....

So I know there are cookbooks and such but I want to hear some recipes that you guys have come up with that are cheap(ish), quick to make, and help meet goals. I was on a cycle and after talking to a nutritionist came up with a plan to keep high cals, protein, and clean as possible , but alot of it was extremely time consuming and hella expensive. There is no escaping the expense of cycling but this is one aspect i think can be done with minimal expense and tweaked to work with our time restrictions due to work or whatever in general.

Ive got two things i make in 5-8 serving quantities the day before that are pretty delicious, decent results, quick, and wont break the bank.


1. Tuna pasta

Albacore tuna
large elbow mac.
extra virgin olive oil
minced garlic
diced tomato
green onion
light mayo
light cheese

2. beef

Lean ground beef browned and seasoned with : lawrys, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper
add in same pan on reduced heat: canned potatoes
green onion
sliced onion
sliced green pepper
olive oil
ketchup

potatoes can be substituted with brown rice if so add butter. you can also eliminate the potatoes or rice, slap in on a bun with white cheese makes a kind of philly/sloppy joe type sanwhich, but its easier to eat out of a ziplock at work.

If you got one you like that falls into this catagory please share.......

Power butter PLus double serving protein shakes= Easy and awesome.

Liquid egg whites make them your friend. Cook off some ground beef and some ground chicken and than combine them and spice it out you like. Works great for egg white omelets in the morning.

Bag tuna is so much more easy to carry and pop open at any time. They have some flavored for you eat it right out the bag.


Add protein to everything. Having oatmeal? Add protein, Having wattage cheese? Add protein and peanut butter lol.. Having pancakes add more protein top with peanut butter lmao.

You ever had a vanila protein shake with a sweet potato and some peanut butter? Awesome and awesome for added cals.

take chicken squeeze a few fresh lemons on them add some rosemarry and garlic let sit for a few hours and back it off. Chop up the chicken. Use for chicken salad, chicken wraps, chicken om top of everything ... Just cook off a shit load of it and use it all week.

Add oats to your shakes too.

So its reall simple
chicken
oats
tuna
sweet potatos
Peanut butter
Milk
Veggies
wraps
lots of protein powder.
there is your easy shopping list.. Cant be any more simple. Ive got thousands of recipes.

Is there such a thing as unflavored protein powder? If so, where can i get it. That way the food is altered in flavor.

Natural flavored? Haha. If you buy 20kg bags they usually aren't flavoured to cut costs

This isn't a bad idea not relatively cheap but good for every once in a while to switch it up.

1cup brown rice
3-4 egg whites
Small cube diced carrot
Instead of peas I use broccoli
Either small diced pork loin or tenderloin stripped of fat
Tblspn of low/no sodium teriyaki sauce (optional)

Kind of a quick fix of a pork fried rice

Yes you can get unflavored protein at Protein factory easy.
