In the western world it’s really easy to eat a lot of fat without even noticing.
Athletes in particular need protein and carbs to fuel their training and recovery. Fat is the fuel the athlete needs only a very small amount of. So minimising cheese, cream and oil/butter is always on my mind. Plus what chefs call ‘cut’ but normal people call ‘acidity’ brings a lot of flavour to any dish, even something as commonplace as a toasted cheese sandwich. The tomatoes also add fibre and vitamins, particularly vitamin C.
Lots of recipe development and general adaptation of techniques I try out in my home kitchen before using them on athletes.
Low cheese (therefore lower fat), high taste cheese toasty incoooming!
