Bacon, sundried tomato and cheese loaf.
So, this week I'm mixing things up with a savoury loaf that is high in protein, low in carbohydrates but quick and easy to make.
I really do not think you can doubt the combination of cheese and tomato and when you add in bacon, well, it's delicious. So, I just had to combine it for my weekly breakfast loaf.
Using Musclefood lean turkey bacon meant that I avoided any fattyness in my loaf and also reduced the calorie content whilst keeping the protein content high.
I used Eat Lean cheese as my cheese choice, and it didn't let me down; low in fat and high in protein, it was the perfect addition.
So, here is the recipe to allow you enjoy this treat for yourself.
You will need:
- 32g of milled linseed,
- 40g of unflavoured protein (I used Pulsin and beond pea protein),
- 60g of coconut flour ( I used Sukrin),
- 120g of egg whites (can use two eggs if you like),
- 32g of chopped sundried tomatoes,
- 3 cooked and diced rashers of bacon,
- 40g of grated protein cheese,
- 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder,
- a pinch of salt,
- Seeds to decorate.
Preheat the oven to 160C and then grease and line a loaf tin.
Simply combine all of dry ingredients and then pour in the wet and keep mixing; the mixture is quite dense but you may need to add water to loosen it up a little.
Add in the cheese, bacon and sundried tomatoes; mixing until well combined.
Pop the mixture in to the tin and then sprinkle with seeds. Press the seeds in to the top a little so that they stick.
Bake for around 40 minutes or until firm to touch, leave to cool in the tin before slicing and enjoying.
