Ideas to make it all a little less bland!

I am currently scouring the net to try and find some things to make eating just protein or protein & veg a little more exciting!

I do, however, need to put a very large CAVEAT on these, as I haven't read the P&V stage yet, so if I am coming up with ideas that are wrong I am entrusting Laura & Linda to identify my errors :) where they have been found from a "Dukan" source I have linked to the recipe rather than typing out my "Dukan adaption".

Dips: a tuna one - whizz a tub of quark, a tin of tuna, some garlic and fresh herbs all together in the blender. Dip your veggies in for a snack! The original recipe calls for 1/2 a tub of soured cream too, but I reckon it can work without it.

Tzatziki dip: non fat greek yoghurt, cucumber (diced), garlic, chopped mint and a squeeze of lemon (delicious as a dip for a meat kebab)


Curried chicken: chicken pieces in a tablespoon of quark and a tea spoon of curry powder.

Pizza! http://www.mydukandiet.com/recipes/cauliflower-pizza-crust.html

Cauliflower mash http://dukan-diet.info/dukan-forum/index.php?topic=779.0

Dukan Diet Burger (in a bun - kinda!) http://dukan-diet.info/2010/04/25/dukan-diet-recipes-weight-loss-phase-dukan-diet-burger/

I will continue my search and share accordingly!

    You inspired me to go and experiment with tuna and cottage cheese (which makes me heave because of the texture) blitzed up with some spring onions, parsley and a little garlic. Mmm quite tasty and will make a change. That's lunch sorted. :-)
    I've had a look at those other recipe links, the 'pizza' looks interesting. I've made the mash but put a bit too much garlic in, was still nice though. We do all need to experiment and hunt out recipes to keep it interesting, boredom is my number one enemy.

    can you use low fat philadephia cheese in anything? I use it a lot to replace normal cheese.

    ooh what about chicken wrapped in bacon with philadelphia in the middle? Cooks for 20-25 mins in the oven and its delicious! I wont mention what I normally have on the side which is why I could never do this diet. You're doing FAB well done xxx

    Think I'll give some of these a go :)

    Michelle, it's near on impossible to find bacon that we can have, it's far too salty and fatty :(
