Bulking meal ideas

[t3c]

Whoever is bulking, what do some of your meals look like?

I'm not looking for your whole diet, just one or two of your meals for the day

1 cup of oatmeal raw in a shake.

1 cup of baked beans, and a burger.

Those are a couple. they worked well for me.

No one's gonna want to hear this, but I got my best results ever when I ate whatever I wanted. In about 4 months I added 85lbs to my bench, maybe 100 to my squat. I lost fat or maintained at the same time, while gaining about 10 - 15 lbs. This was my senior year of high school and I was trying to add weight so I could land a football scholarship. Here was a typical day:

8am - Shake w/ 60g pro, 100g carbs, 8g fat
1030am - Protein Bar, 16pro, 50c, 5f
130pm - Enchiladas w/rice, milk 40p, 100c, 35f
3 - 4 I'd train, then have an MRP w milk, so about 65p, 70c, 3f
630 - Taco Bell, not sure how much, but I calculated it out one time and it was over 2000 calories.
10pm - Milk w/oreos, so 25p, 100c, 20f

Shitload of calories, but I grew quick, was strong as shit and slept like a rock. Not everyone could get results doing this, but it worked great for me. The best advice I can give is try to eat clean w/ high calories, but if you want something considered bad, eat it and don't sweat it.
I went from 235 to 250 on that diet and looked leaner. Maybe it was my age, but if you wanna grow like a muthafucka, eat like a muthafucka and train like a BADMUTHAFUCKA.
Good Luck-

Yeah

Ive been having a box of uncle bens 3 cheese & brocolli rice mixed with a can of tuna. Its fuckin GOOD and like a total of 700cals atleast with maybe 40g protein? Crazy sh¡t, 2$ worth of food.

Kid Dynamite is right. I started off real clean, tons of low-gi carbs, lots of protein, and little fat. Eventually, I started just eating whatever as much as possible. The results were a lot quicker when I ate whatever, but the fat came on more then too.

If you have a health food store, or bulk food store, go get a bunch of oatmeal, and maybe some high fat soy powder. Add some whey, flax, and sweet fruits. Blend it into a shake and drink it twice a day. Extra 1000+ calories right there, plus it's cheap and easier to get down than 2 or three meals.

For breakfast, cook 3 or 4 eggs w/olive oil (or pam if you're restricting fat), add some cheese and put it between two slices of bread (rye, pumpernickel, etc.) Add sausage for extra protein and fat.

Drink skim milk, with every meal, with scoop of whey if possible. Lots of protein and carbs and calories right there.

Don't go overboard on water or you'll be too full to eat. Don't eat low calorie veggies, fruits, or anything that could take up valuable real estate in you stomach. Do eat even when you think you can't.

Hope this isn't redundant

Heres a meal that packs alot of nutrients and cals and isnt a huge portion of food to mow down. You can tweak it to your needs, but heres what i use.

Creatures Custard:
6eggwhites
2whole eggs
1 cup dry oats
1 bannana or mixture of your fav. fruit
1 scoop whey
4-8 packets of sugar substitute

Throw it all in a blender in let it mix. Pour mixture into a large microwavable bowl and heat on high for 3-4 mins stirring halfway through and mixture will take consitency of custard. You can throw in a tbs. on nat. peanut butter for some more healthyfat/cals also.

Comes out to about: 750 cals/55pro/85carb/17fat
these calculations are not counting the 1tbs. peanut butter.

 

[Kid Dynamite]

With a name like Creature's Custard you know it's good. What does that stuff actually taste like? You basically described what I eat for breakfast, but blended.

I think Berardi recommended doing this so I'll give him credit but... Basically carry around a bag of whole wheat bagels with PB and 4 scoops of Casein/Whey mixed into a huge jug of water and eat that IN BETWEEN the meals you're already eating... complex carbs + good fat + protein = WIN
I typically just up the steak/beef and add complex CHO to 4 meals out of 7. Works every time
