I'm working out, and my trainer had given me protein goals.

I eat the eggs and liver for maximum bioavailability in nutrients (nature's multivitamin). I eat the ears for the collagen to help with skin elasticity and joint health.

I only know for metric temps.
Put it on a tray, in a cold oven set for 180°c.
Takes 15-18 minutes (probably depends how fast your oven is, so keep an eye on it as you figure it out).
Streaky bacon can get crispy AF. Back bacon, less so but still good

Awesome. Thank you. I'll try out the oven method.

I thought that might be the case, given all the protein.

I used to be jacked when I worked private security. I eventually gave up trying to hit my target protein target in food alone, and got a lot of it from supplements.

Well, awesome. Good luck on all your fitness endeavors!

What supplements did you use? Did you find yourself doing it all at once or spread out over the day?

[–] wesker@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

My supplement use should be primarily a cautionary one, because I screwed up my kidneys and liver taking pretty big stacks, and now years later are they for the most part healed.

That being said, a good old whey shake (with nothing else added) is hard to go wrong with. And if I had to do it over again, I'd skip virtually all the other stuff I loaded into my body.

Crispy bacon is not hard at all, you just need to cook it longer than you typically would, and then rest it for a few seconds.
