A High Protein Croque Madame
The experiment has been completed. Result? It was aight! It was good but there were two problems: 1. should have used ham instead of turkey quorn (obviously), 2. should have used a different heat for the croqueing of the Madame because my cheese didn't all melt. Aside from this, oh was it fun to make and delicious! I hadn't bought Gruyere in a while and that cheese deserves whole arias. So I made the bread, fried it in coconut oil with Gruyère and the Quorn inside. When ready I controversially made some bechamel sauce with pea protein and a bunch of nutritional yeast (+coconut milk to hold it together). Up went the egg and caboooom for a nice 565kcals, 70g protein (!!), 18.6g carbos (!!), 22g fats and 10.5g fiber (!!). I used two slices of my protein bread for it which was made avec: 48g egg whites, 31g brown rice protein, 28g pea protein, 25ml coconut milk, 8g hemp seeds, 2g linseeds, 7g nutritional yeast and 22g coconut flour. Half of the loaf alone (so 5 slices) = 243kcals, 35.7g protein, 9.7g carb (!!), 6g fat and 6.7g fiber! I love experiments like this :-))))
