4 STRATEGIC TIPS for Eating an Entertainment Meal While On P3 (WITHOUT MAJOR GAINS) Eating a special meal like this (I m calling it a let-loose meal) whether it s at a restaurant, a meal your friends or family prepared, or made specially by you, will almost always mean you ll want to consider your eating options before, during, and after such a meal. Even with this special P3toLife version. What s different: let-loose meal vs regular daily life eating: Most social gatherings will involve a significantly higher calorie intake for the meal, as well as likely much higher carb intake, than you would usually consume for 1 meal. That s just how it is once you consider either the number of courses, or the ingredients and servings used for the recipe; and usually it s lots of both! While I have done my very best to deliver an entertaining level meal that carefully considers the calories and ingredients and indeed it uses only Phase 3 allowed ingredients, it is STILL quite a few more calories than you would eat in a normal P3tolife daily meal. BBQ MEAL: 742 calories 44g protein 34g carbs 23g NET carbs 44g fat Please for the love of all the hard work you ve put in this far, see my detailed article/video series on the P3tolife site called: STRATEGIES FOR LETTING LOOSE P3toLife.com/strategies (also in the PDF downloads section) Here, I discuss SPECIFICALLY, WITH EXAMPLES, how you can handle these types of meals without causing yourself trauma. It s worth a look because it s these very types of meals that start the initial rock-downthe-mountain that leads into a full blown landslide of giving up/gaining weight. This does NOT need to happen. You CAN eat a let-loose meal without falling apart. At the same time, you can t expect to change nothing else in your life before/during/after and have a major indulgence, without having an effect on your body. The strategies series will show you how I go about planning or correcting to keep it all in balance. BBQ Entertaining Menu p3tolife.com - Rayzel Lam 4

Slowly sprinkle the almond flour mixture over the egg whites while folding gently.

19 BBQ Entertaining Menu p3tolife.com - Rayzel Lam 19 Mint Chocolate Chip 5 Ice Cream Cake Ingredients CRUST 1/2 cup almond flour 1/2 cup unsweetened, shredded coconut 2 tbsp cocoa powder 3 tbsp butter, melted 2 tbsp Swerve Optional: 1/32 tsp stevia 1 small scoop that comes in powdered stevia bottles (if you like a sweeter crust and your guests are okay with stevia flavor) FILLING 6 cups roughly chopped cauliflower (about ½ pieces) - about 1 lb 1 cup coconut milk 1/2 cup Swerve 1 tbsp peppermint or spearmint extract Small handful of baby spinach 4 tbsp chopped, sugar-free dark chocolate (such as Lily s brand) OR cacao nibs What to Do USE a 6-7 nonstick springform pan. Cut a parchment paper circle for the bottom using the bottom of the pan as a guide and line the bottom of the pan with the parchment circle. If you do not have a pan that small, a plastic storage container or bowl of roughly that size can be used. FOR THE CRUST, combine the almond flour, shredded coconut, cocoa powder, swerve, optional stevia, and melted butter in a small bowl. Mix until well combined and press into the bottom of the prepared pan. Place the crust in the freezer until ready to fill. FOR THE FILLING, steam the cauliflower in the microwave or on the stovetop for about 5 minutes, until tender. Allow to cool completely OR Instant pot instructions: manual high pressure for 5 minutes. COMBINE the cooled cauliflower, chilled coconut milk, Swerve, peppermint extract, and spinach* in a high-speed blender or food processor and blend until smooth and creamy.

20 5 STIR in about 2/3 of the chopped chocolate or cocoa nibs and pour over the crust. Sprinkle the remaining chopped chocolate/cocoa nibs over the top of the cake and return to the freezer for at least 5 hours, preferably overnight TO SERVE, carefully lift the cake from the pan/mold and slice into 6 pieces. If the cake has been frozen overnight, allow to sit at room temperature for about 5-10 minutes prior to slicing. (Tip: To ease in slicing, run a sharp knife under hot water, wipe dry, slice, and repeat.) Recall that for the leaner version of the P3 menu for yourself you will cut your slice into half once again and eat just one half of your slice. *For a fancier looking cake do the following: OMIT the spinach while blending the filling. RESERVE 1/2 cup of the white filling to be used in a piping bag or ziplock bag to decorate the top later - stick in freezer to get thick. POUR 1/2 of the rest of the white filling into a bowl, mix with 1.5 tbsp of the chocolate chips/cacao nibs, and pour over the prepared crust. ADD the spinach to the remaining filling in the blender and blend until smooth STIR in 1.5 tbsp to the green filling and pour on top of the white filling of the cake. IDEALLY, let cake harden in the freezer for about 30 minutes - then pull out and use the ½ cup of white filling in the piping bag to decorate the top. Garnish with the remaining chocolate/cacao nibs and freeze.
