This is another high protein, high satiety, nutrient-dense creation from Ketogains’ Luis Villasenor uses in a Protein Sparing Modified Fast (PSMF) cutting phase.
The spinach provides plenty of vitamins and minerals while the protein powder and low fat cottage cheese provide a 58g hit of protein in a ‘meal’ of less than 400 calories.
Something called “protein sludge” probably isn’t going to win any culinary awards, but it ranks well if you’re looking to increase satiety while keeping nutrient density high at the same time.
