Carefully designed to fit in with the Sleekgeek Food List,  Healthy Meal Template, and  Portion Control Guide.

Details

• Recommended for: Breakfast

• Serves: 1 Women’s portion or double up for 1 male portion (see full portion control guide here).

Recipe Notes

• This breakfast recipe doesn’t include any vegetables as per our normal Sleekgeek Food List and Healthy Meal Template Guidelines.

• Technically it does include vegetables, it has sweet potato in it, but we classify this as a “smart carb” in the Sleekgeek Food List because of it’s high-carb content. So please note, this is a higher-carb recipe than what we normally recommend. Still totally OK, but just good to be aware about.

Ingredients

• Quality Protein
  • 1 serving whey protein power flavour of choice (I used chocolate)
  • 1/2 cup fat-free Bulgarian yoghurt

• Colourful Veggies
  • 1/2 medium sweet potato, peeled and grated (technically a “smart carb” due to it’s high-carb content, but we’ll leave it in the vegetable category for now.)

• Smart Carb
  • 1 small granny smith apple, grated
  • 1/2 cup blueberries for garnish, heated to release juices
  • 1/2 tbsp tapioca flour/cornflour/ other flour

• Healthy Fat
  • 1/2 tbsp Coconut oil for frying

• Herbs, Spices, Extras
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • Half tsp ginger
  • xylitol/stevia to taste

Ingredients are based off the Sleekgeek Food List, combined together using the Sleekgeek Healthy Meal Template, and portioned out with the Sleekgeek Portion Control Guide.

Utensils

• Grater

• Spoon

• Spatula

• 

• 

Instructions

• Peel and grate the sweet potato coursely.

• Peel and grate the apple coursely.

• Mix the two together and leave to stand for about 10 minutes.

• Brush the frying pan with the coconut oil.

• After 10 minutes, squeeze the apple and potato mix out over the sink to get rid of all excess fluid that has formed. Squeeze hard.

• Add the cinnamon and sweetener of choice and mix well.

• Heat the pan.

• Divide the apple/potato mix.

• Make balls and put them in the frying pan.

• As they start to cook, carefully flatten them into discs of about 1,5 cm thick.

• Cook for about 3 minutes or until firm enough to turn over carefully.

• Cook on the other side until cooked through and getting a slight crisp on the edges. Remove from pan to cool a bit.

• In a bowl, mix the whey and the yoghurt until smooth. It will be a thick consistency.

• Heat the berries in microwave or stovetop.

To Serve

• Place one rosti on the plate.

• Put a quarter of the whey mixture in the middle and top it with another rosti.

• Put another quarter of the whey mix on top and sprinkle with the heated berries, drizzling a little of the released juice over it.

• Repeat with other ingredients.
