Holy smokes these sound good. I just started drooling. :)

I can see this will have to be added to the meal plan for next week. :)

I agree those meatballs sound delicious!!

What do you do then? Put it in the oven at what temp? for how long? Or do you cook the meatballs before putting them in the muffin tin??

I target 40% carb/30% prot/30% fat, but never seem to hit it. I tend to hit 50% carb/30%prot/20% fat okay, but sometimes I go to 55ish% carb, 25% protein, 15% fat... Complex.

I target 100g, range from 90-120.

I use a lot of protein powder, working to move away from that a little. Tried canned pink salmon,but too much sodium...

Yep, :yes: I put them in the oven at 350 and bake for about half an hour. Check on them though. It would be sad if they dried out.

When I was losing weight, I just aimed for 100 grams of protein a day. Protein definitely aids in muscle building, satiety, and the maintenance of lean body mass.

Now that I've been at goal and am more focused on building muscle/achieving an action hero chick type body, my protein intake is between 125 and 200 grams a day (broad range, I know) - last week, my average protein intake was 160 grams, with a balance of 37% protein, 33% carbs, and 30% fat with 1,850 calories. I try to aim for 40/30/30, but that was close enough.

I put protein powder in EVERYTHING - oatmeal, muffins, yogurt, shakes, sometimes even water *GAG* if I'm really desperate to get that protein in. I don't recommend putting it in water, though; even if it mixes well, it'll taste like butt.

I aim for 100g a day. It's as high as I have been able to get consistently without going the protein powder/supplement route, which I don't really care to do.

Oooo, I fell like it's time for my kidney stones psa, but I will just bite my tongue! ;)
