Quick and Easy Breakfast (or anytime drink)

My favorite breakfast drink is the IP Chocolate Shake - but instead of mixing it with water, I mix it with my Almond flavored coffee. I put it in the magic bullet (small blender) and add ice. It's so yum. I feel like I'm drinking a frozen Starbucks drink. I drink it every morning. You can also use the Chocolate Pudding (for less carbs). Yummy!

Chicken Marsala

1 IP yogurt
Juice of half a lemon juice
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger or 1 tsp. ground ginger
1 teaspoons salt
4 boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-in pieces

Curry Sauce

1 tablespoon butter 0r

1 tablespoon of extra-virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1 jalapeno pepper, finely chopped
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons paprika
1 tsp. ground cloves
1cup WF spaghetti sauce
2 teaspoons salt, or to taste
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
1/4 tablespoons soy or almond milk sugar free
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves, chopped

In a large bowl, combine yogurt, mix in lemon juice, 2 teaspoons cumin, cinnamon, cayenne, black pepper, ginger, and salt. Stir in the chicken, cover, refrigerate and allow the marriage to begin! Marinate for 1 hour.


In a large skillet, cook chicken in olive oil until cooked through about 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Make your Curry Sauce by adding WF spaghetti sauce in the same skillet over medium high heat. jalapeno (optional) for 1 minute. Add cumin, paprika, cloves, and salt. Stir in milk to give it some a saucier consistence. Simmer on low heat until sauce thickens. Add cooked chicken, and simmer for an additional 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter, and garnish with Kale chips (which are in another recipe on this forum), don't like vinegar so I make my own B BQ spice and sprinkle it on the Kale after I have the oil and salt on there.

Aromatic Basmati Rice

In a saucepan or rice cooker combine the following ingredients. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, cover and simmer until all of the liquid is soaked up and the rice is tender. If using a rice cooker just add all ingredients and cook on low.
Enough to make four servings Cauliflower rice
1 shallot, finely chopped (I didn't use this)
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. ground turmeric

1 t. ground cardamon
Juice of one lime

I know this was most likely not total on protocol, because of the almond milk I used had 5 crabs and 1 protein for 8oz.

But I figured it is better than going out and getting it form a Restaurant, and it may be just fine for other phases of IP.

If you try it I hope you enjoy it as much as I did, really cured the craving for something saucy and spicy.

Ding Dongs - well sorta

IP Chocolate Crepe package
or IP Plain Crepe package with 1 oz of WF Choc. Sauce
2 oz of water
Optional Cinnamon & All Spice to taste (i usually give a couple shakes of each)
Shake
Pour into muffin pan - I usually divide into 3 muffins
Add a small dollop of WF Marshmallow dip into the middle of each muffin
Cook 10-12 min (depending on your oven/climate) on 350 degrees
Let cool. then eat as is or dip into WF chocolate sauce.

Option - When I have a busy day ahead and need a little something extra, I add 1-2 ounces of egg whites which gives it a different texture but same great taste. You do need to cook for, at least, 12 minutes if adding the egg whites.

from an Ideal Protein facebook "notes" page. I've not tried it, but I want to when weather gets chilly...

"This recipe extends one package of chicken soup into 3 servings which can be heated and eaten easily, and at any time of day, and counts as only one packet serving. All of the extra ingredients are “freebies,” which can be eaten in these quantities without any negative impact, even in phase one. It is a good idea to have prepared in the fridge for when you need a quick pick me up, or while you are cooking in the late afternoon and might be tempted to nibble!! Take a jar to the office and snack on it during the week. Pre-armed is prepared!

One envelope Ideal Protein chicken soup mix
One scallion sliced
3 tablespoons chopped celery
3 tablespoons chopped onion
2 chopped mushrooms
2 chicken bouillon cubes
Water, 3 cups

1) In 1 quart jar shake one packet chicken soup mix with one cup water.
2)In small saucepan combine celery, onion, mushrooms, bouillon cubes and two cups water, bring just to boil and remove from stove.
3) Cool to room temperature, add scallion
4) Add mixture to quart jar containing chicken soup, and shake.
5) Refrigerate and heat in one cup portions, throughout the day."

[JollyCrewzer]

1 Cup White Vinegar or Rice Vinegar
1 Cup Cider Vinegar
1 Tablespoon WF Maple Syrup
1 Tablespoon Cayenne Pepper
1 Tablespoon Hot Pepper Sauce (Tabasco, Franks, RedHot etc...)
1 Teaspoon Salt
1 Teaspoon Black Pepper

Combine ingedients and place in a jar with a tight fitting lid. Refrigerate for 2 to 3 days. Shake occasionally.

I use this on pulled pork!

Try 1/2+ cup cooked rhubarb in 1 packet of IP Jello. Sweetner optional but not needed. Simple and delicious.

This is a great way to get your veggies at lunch and also feel full through the afternoon. 2 cups of broth has about 20 calories, no fat, no carbs, no sugar, and 4g of protein. Sometimes I'll throw in some leftover chicken or beef (about 1 oz., that I can compensate for at dinner), and sometimes it's nice to add some shiritaki noodles.

Check with your coach about using broth.

Can anyone tell me the best place to find shirataki noodles? I'm up in Canada so our selection of some things doesn't seem to be as good as what you can find in the US. I looked in the asian section of Safeway today, but no luck.
