I love chocolate, and I love rice cake. Normally these two feel like things you should avoid on a diet. But honestly, why not? Let’s make a healthier version so you can enjoy them even on a cut and still handle your cravings. I am […]
Main Dish
Sweet & Sour Chicken, Mushroom & Tofu Stir-Fry (4 days of meal-prep)
Another nutritious tofu dish! 🥢 I paired it with noodles this time, but you can enjoy it with rice if your carbs allow, or just as it is! This dish even passed Lee’s taste test (and he’s not a big tofu fan 😆), so I’m […]
Witch soup for cutting (7 days of meal prep)
This is the best way to use up all the leftover veggies in your fridge and at the same time, fill it back up with a week’s worth of healthy meal prep! It’s an easy way to hit your protein goal, stay full with wholesome […]
Dak Bossam (닭 보쌈, Rolled and steamed chicken)
I made this recipe right after coming back from Korea, inspired by the movie The Solitary Gourmet. It turned out just as delicious as real pork Bossam! Even though I used lean chicken thighs, the meat wasn’t dry or tough at all! It was tender, […]
Baked bean and Eggplant stack
I originally wanted to make eggplant lasagna, but then Minseo Kim, the mad food scientist, decided to experiment with something new. Lee insisted it has absolutely nothing to do with lasagna—so I guess I can’t really call it that. 😆 Anyway, I truly enjoyed this […]
Prawn and celery soup
If you’re looking for the best way to use up a bunch of celery – you’ve come to the right place. I actually threw this soup together because I had way too much celery and onion left in the fridge, and I’m heading to Korea […]
High Protein Pork Pilaf
I made this for Lee’s family at a family lunch, and everyone — even Lee’s mum — loved it. (Lee had two servings, by the way 😋). It’s high in protein, high in volume, and meal-prep friendly. Enjoy!
Low cal Zucchini Frittata with ham
This zucchini frittata was really easy to make, high in protein, and great for meal prep! Strangely, it tasted even better the next day than when it was fresh. I forgot to mix the ham in with the egg and zucchini, so I ended up […]
Japanese Cream Stew
When you go to an Asian grocery store, look for the House Cream Stew block! 🥘 It’s an easy, high-protein, and comforting meal. Perfect for meal prep, and if you want more volume, just add broccoli, and cabbage with a bit of extra seasoning.
High Protein Maguro don
Tuna is such a great lean protein source. Today, I’ll show you how to make quick and easy marinated tuna sashimi in just 20 minutes! If you have this at home, you won’t even miss going to a Japanese restaurant.
