This is what I mean when I say we are volume eating. I lost over 60 pounds eating massive, massive portions of food because I am a volume eater and I need a lot of food to keep me satisfied. And one of the best ways to do that is with a shit ton of vegetables.

I'm absolutely craving pasta right now. So let me show you how I do it. Maximum weight loss style, high volume, low calorie density. We're gonna be using two massive boxes of mushrooms and we're just gonna slice them up. Grab the biggest pan you can find, whack in all those mushrooms and a couple of onions.

If you can't tell already, this is a gigantic amount of food. And while that's cooking, we're going to be making our sauce. So obviously we're going to be adding in some more vegetables. I've got two little courgettes here. I don't want this to be a green sauce, so we're going to peel it.

You can add any other neutral vegetable if you want instead of courgettes. Cauliflower is another one of my go-tos. Also, I'm feeling super lazy today, so I would usually cook this before I blend it. But honestly, I can't be bothered. Into the blender. Now we're going to be adding in some chickpeas. and the water, plus some silken tofu.

These are both high in protein and in fiber and they're gonna keep you really full and satisfied. We're gonna want some flavor. Okay, get in some with some garlic, two little cheeky cloves, obviously some nutritional yeast, veggie stock lemon juice or apple cider vinegar Now we gonna blend it up boil your pasta I actually ate so much pasta on my weight loss journey and the key is to really prioritize those vegetables So I not gonna actually cook loads of pasta

just a little bit like this. When your mushrooms and onions are starting to caramelize like this, that's when we go in with our cheesy sauce. Woo, and give it a really good mix. When your sauce is thick and creamy, just like this, we're gonna add in some greens, a little spinach, Give it a little mix. Let's plate up. We're going in with a lot of our cheesy sauce.
