looks like shit, sounds like it tastes like shit, and you burned the bun.

Looks good anon, your pic made me hungry

It's a whole wheat bun, anon. It can take a lot of punishment before burning. They had just a very light bite to them, mostly being soft without becoming soggy under the weight of the meat and sauce. PM me your address anon, I'll send you one

EDIT: wow thanks for the gold!

>>17264014
Thanks anon. Pretty easy to make too.

that bread is very overbaked

>>17264021
It's toasted, anon, not baked. It was still very soft, having a very light bite to it.

I like my sloppy joes a little sweeter and it looks like your recipe is missing any sweetness. If you want a healthy way to add it, replace your passata with a good squirt of sugar-free ketchup and a few shakes of worcestershire sauce for some additional sweet smokiness at almost no calories. Some bell pepper can be diced small as well to add a bit more veg.

Also, your macros look borked. I'd do something like 4oz of meat per sandwich to up the protein to carb ratio.

I like mine pretty spicy, that's why I dumped the carrots/celery/bell peppers. I was actually eating too much protein and not enough carbs, so I switched the ratios around. Now, I eat 20-30g of protein every 2-3 hours. But you can definitely load these up with 4 oz of meat and they'll still be good.

Yeah, /fit/ approved indeed. Go back to your fag board gayboy.

They still taste great, anon. I'd use 80/20 and loads of runny olive oil+passata if I could but I'm trying to limit the calorie intake. They weren't exactly dry, I just used extra tomato paste to make them a little less sloppy and a little more sticky so they don't fall all over the place. You want me to fly over to your house and make you some, anon?

I have no doubt food tastes better when starving yourself. And no, I already ate today.

I'm on a bulk, anon. Just because I'm avoiding extra calories doesn't mean I don't eat a shitload. I eat similarly sized meals 6 times a day.

>> No.17264223

>>17264211
That 6 meals a day stuff is really overkill dude. Unless you're literally at peak fitness and are having to cram 5k+ calories in a day, larger more spaced out meals will have no impact on your gains.

I beg to differ, anon. I used to eat 3 big meals a day, then I went to see a nutritionist and took some classes in college. Everyone says it's metabolically more beneficial to eat smaller meals multiple times a day instead of massive meals fewer times. I did notice a lot of improvements in my general energy through the day, and how many shits I take. I used to take 3 shits a day on similar caloric intake when eating big meals, now I shit maybe once every other day. I'm still getting adequate protein intake, just much more split up throughout the day. Not for nothing but I'm currently at 9.2% body fat measured by a BodPod, so I'd think I'm doing something right.
