I've made that before mikasadan but I put butter and milk (or cream) in it. The whole point of having the boiled sweet potatoes for me is to have some flavour without the fat. Unless you're just saying to mash the boiled tatas and add nothing.

I use about 1/2 cup of rice milk
Bumping this thread up ;)
My diet is fairly simple:
Ingredients: oats, brown basmati rice, red rice, chicken breast, turkey breast, eggs, beef, salmon, tuna, mullet, tilapia, broccoli, baby carrots, spinach, lemons, bananas, apples, strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, red kidney beans, black beans, whole grain tortilla wraps.
Utensils: saucepan, microwave, frying pan, foreman grill and of course a rice cooker.
Most things are prepared within 15 mins, work food is prepared either the night before or before I leave (usually only takes 5-10 mins). Dinner takes 25 mins tops to prepare. I like things done quick and easy.
Flavourings: salt (I keep my sodium intake in check and blood pressure is currently very good), lemon, pepper, garlic, balsamic vinegar, cinnamon, steak mix (salt, dried garlic, dried peppers etc). Salt is wonderful and can make everything very edible. Fuck eating dry bland chicken breast, a small amount of salt can make a world of difference. Just make sure you don't have any blood pressure issues and keep your daily sodium intake below 2000mg.
My diet goes something like this:
Wake up: 1 cup of pasteurized egg whites and a banana and berries.
1 hour later: 1 1/3 cup of oats, 5 whole eggs scrambled in olive oil (sometimes swap with chicken, turkey, beef or fish just to mix it up), raw carrots and/or broccoli.
Then leave for work.
15-20 mins later: 1 banana then into work to lift lots of boxes and stuff.
2 1/2 hours later (first break): 1 1/2 cups of brown/red rice mix and either salmon, tuna or chicken. Lightly salted. Then a banana. (Raw baby carrots, spinach and broccoli mix is constantly munched on throughout the day)
2 1/2 hours later (second break): 2 Salmon or tuna in whole grain tortilla wraps with mashed kidney beans (or black beans or lentils for variation) with some balsamic vinegar to flavour. Again a bit of pre prepared veggie mix.
3 1/2 hours later (home): Berries, banana (fruits are soooo refreshing to come home to and beats those sugar cravings).
20 mins later: Beef, chicken/turkey or fish (mullet, tilapia or salmon) with brown/red rice mix. Veggies and maybe one teaspoon of peanut butter.
30 mins later: Workout
Post workout: 1 1/2 cups pasteurized egg whites, banana, apple and berries.
2 hours later: 1 cup of pasteurized egg whites (or chicken/ turkey breast), veggies, then bed.
Notes: Currently NO supplements (not even protein powder and multi v's). Why? I'd rather save my money at the moment. Plus my body tells me its getting all it needs.Cheat meals - whatever I feel like, usually only eaten in times of stress otherwise once a week or two. I stick to this diet because its all I can afford an know how to prepare. Will never spend more than 25 mins in the kitchen.
I seem to have hit a sweet spot where I am still gaining yet leaning up at the same time.Most importantly, I feel really good on this diet and have all the energy I need (provided I get enough sleep). Fatloss has started slowing down a little bit though, but thats okay for the time being, I'm not planning to step up on stage anytime soon (work is just too hectic atm). As long as I can see my abs and some separation in my shoulders and quads, I'm happy for now.
I'm going to try copying your diet :P see how it goes for me.. if that's alright.
I'll let you know how I go in a couple of weeks.
I am a bit late on this thread but how much do i eat?= not much actually.
I have never been fond of eating a lot, and might be the only person on the planet who has found diet is not the deciding factor in my growth- training is.
I have tried eating heaps, and eating clen. Neither rellly did much for me, but i put that down to my metabolism.
i generally have 2 slices of toast for breakfast, and maybe a protien powder if i remember.
Lunch is two turkey sandwiches and a muffin from time to time and dinner is usually whatever i feel like- usually meat and some vege.
I manage to stay between 85kgs and 93 kgs without changing my diet at all, just my training.
Also consider that i started out at 6'1 and 69kgs before i stated training, i was always skinny.
