Twochubbycubs The Cookbook: 100 Tried and Tested Slimming Recipes

Product Information

As the blog continues to grow, I thought it would be a lot easier to put all the recipes in one place – so those who are looking for something to inspire them can have a good nosey! I’ve broken them down into appropriate categories. First let me begin this post by apologising to everyone because I know I am very, very late with my usual apology about not posting enough and the subsequent fervent and well-meant and then entirely ignored promise to post more. But for once we have a genuine excuse above and beyond I saw something shiny on the floor or we’ve been on holiday. See, and I know most of you will know this, we have welcomed our third child DINNER TIME into the world. I mean technically it’s our fourth child but the planner doesn’t count because I think Paul ate some lead during cooking it up. Actually that is very unfair, the planner remains a hidden joy! If you follow our example – don’t scrimp on ingredients, and learn to love food rather than endure it – you’ll be on a happier weight-loss journey. Twochubbycubs has always been about having a laugh and not taking this dieting nonsense too seriously. Life’s too short to be po-faced about what you eat, and we’ve reflected that ethos in our new book. We hope you enjoy these meals – all 500 calories or under per serving – and the chat that goes with them (James always comes first; Paul pops up for the notes). Give eating well a go, see how you get on, and tell us at the blog! Two Chubby Cubs recipes under 500 calories Mongolian beef

Twochubbycubs Dinner Time: Tasty, slimming dishes for every

don’t be shy when stuffing your wrap – you’ll probably have quite a bit of meat left over – this makes LOADS I’m not going to keep you too long, but I wanted to let you know that I’ve found a butch new past-time – boxing! Well past-time might be overselling it but we’ve just done a boxing class at boot camp and I bloody loved it. I suppose there was always a certain inevitability that I’d enjoy being pummelled in the ring by someone more tattoo than man but still. N0, none of that business, just a few boxing moves in the darkness.

remove the pan from the heat and stir in the lime zest, juice of half the lime and half of the chopped coriander Join the duo behind one of the UK's most popular slimming blogs, Twochubbycubs, aka James and Paul Anderson to discover a range of healthy yet filling recipes.

new book to pre-order: twochubbycubs: dinner time!

cover the bowl in cling film and leave to marinade in the fridge for at least 3 hours, or ideally overnight the recipes do not use crap like artificial sweetener or margarine to be low-calorie – they’re just good, decent recipes using proper ingredients; Thank you Rachael! I’m glad to hear we’re not the only ones whose life revolves around the toilet. We’re just classy! 🙂 life is too short not to find these things hilarious 😀 by the way, Paul loved the use of the word trumps x As many of you know, we moved away from Slimming World a year or so ago to go ‘low calorie’– so the recipes do not have syn values or Weight Watchers points. They’re all under 500 calories though and will slip into a calorie controlled plan very easily. We have heard from people on both plans that the recipes translate very easily though! We really couldn’t be prouder of dinner time – and we would love your support! So if you know someone who has our book, tell them about the new one – and if you see any of our posts on social media, be sure to share them!

Legend has it that if you listen carefully, in the right conditions, you can actually hear Ben from Hartlepool’s arse whistling in the breeze even now. That’s a wrap! Oh noes, my sides. If you love wraps as much as we do, have a look at some of our other recipes! when the water is boiling, add the noodles and cook for 4 minutes, then drain and rinse with cold water A note on our Facebook group. One of my favourite acts that I’ve seen blossom is the ‘pay it forward’ scheme operating, where those who are struggling to buy the book are being gifted it by those in a position to help. It was completely unexpected, but speaks so much to the good in our group. There’s a reason you don’t see much negativity in our group: because it’s full of terrific people. I confess myself ridiculously proud of it. A reminder though: if you’re struggling for money, please, don’t be buying our cookbook – save that for when you have some cash! There’s over 700 recipes now in our index and although they don’t look quite so professional in the photos, the food recipes themselves are exactly the same calibre as you get in the book – and for free.

Let James and Paul give you a newfound confidence to get cooking that will have you laughing along the road to weight loss. Fancy that?! cooking in the oven will give you the best results but if you can’t be arsed you can also do them under the grill– just be careful they don’t burn and make sure they’re cooked in the middleYep. After forgetting some of that information in the last book (it was our first time, be kind!), we have made sure it’s in here. All recipes are below 500 calories (that’s per portion) and most, unless clearly indicated, serve four. Where possible, we have made sure to show where recipes are suitable for gluten free too! Why don’t you use sweetener / Quark / Frylight in your recipes? If you have it, and you love it, please consider leaving us a review: it makes all the difference! And, please, if you’re a member of any facebook groups, do share us! Spread the word. It’s just me and Paul here and there’s only so much we can do!

well, welcome to 2021, everyone! - twochubbycubs well, welcome to 2021, everyone! - twochubbycubs

there’s actually more than 100 recipes in there – I included my fudge recipe as a bonus, and we’ve got you covered with over twenty ideas for sides to go with your dinner too; and of mushrooms – now, get a good mix (the oriental selection in Tesco is absolutely perfect) of types and flavours and chop them up to a good uniform size – don’t just get boring plain mushrooms, you need the flavour This makes enough for two large servings, but it's an easy enough recipe to double up if you need to. Or stretch the ginger beef noodles out by adding more vegetables. You do you! find a baking tray that’s the right size so that you can sit the skewers for the next bit on either side – a pyrex dish is perfect for this get a good solid pan out of the cupboard and start cooking your rice – this dish only takes about fifteen minutes or soPer portion. We’re actually calling book four ‘TWOCHUBBYCUBS: IT’S PER PORTION’. I wish a dish that serves four would be less than 500 calories, trust me! This must-have, delicious debut cookbook from the duo behind one of the UK's most popular slimming blogs, Twochubbycubs, aka James and Paul Anderson - with 100 amazing, healthy yet filling recipes, all elegantly presented and beautifully photographed and each sprinkled with a mini-blog of total nonsense. Anyway I’m terrifically excited. You know how last year was the year of mini holidays? This is the year of the beast, and we’ve finally agreed it with work, booked the flights and figured out how we’re going to look after the cats – we’ve decided to spend the next few months training them how to use the electric tin opener and leave them a slab of Whiskas. We’re going somewhere we’ve always wanted to go but never found the time: OH CANADAAAAAAA! Yes! It’s like Cub Heaven: it’s cool in temperature, hot in bearded-men stakes and full of beauty. If we happen to catch the eye of some bearish mountain daddy who wants to keep us both and take us logging, both literally and euphemistically you understand, then so be it. finely mince that garlic and ginger with ease - get a Microplane grater and you’ll use it every day! So, with a bit of research, we decided to eat ‘properly’ and the weight fell off. It was a revelation. We discovered that by eating decent meals we didn’t need the rubbish on the side. Our meals were something to look forward to and a pleasure. We didn’t feel deprived. And the results spoke for themselves – we lost nearly 19 stone between us.
