Protein Pancakes
On this recipe, please feel free to change around ingredients for taste and experiment with other fruits, nuts, or anything else of your choice.
These pancakes can be used for anytime you are on the go, as they freeze well for up to 45 days. I will say I do prefer them fresh, but I will take the frozen over fast food any day!
8 whole eggs
1-1 1/2 cups of Ground Slow Cooked Oats/Oatmeal (Do not pre-cook. I use my coffee grinder to grind the Oats)
1 whole banana
6-8 packets of Splenda, Stevia, or Equal
1-2 Teaspoons of Cinnamon
1/4 to 1/2 cup of Almonds
Mix all ingredients in a blender (I personally recommend the Oster brand of blenders - great price and they last for forever and have extremely powerful motors). I usually set the blender to puree or mix and let it blend for 1-2 minutes.
Heat your pan using medium heat. For oil I recommend Macadamia Nut Oil (it is hard to find and yes you can get it at our store), or Extra Virgin Olive Oil (only use brands in a dark bottle). The only problem with the Olive Oil is that it burns real easily and I prefer the taste of Macadamia Nut Oil.
Pour out your "pancake batter" into the pan as you would any normal pancake batter and cook to desired color.
Another option is to pour into muffin cups and cook in the oven at 300 degrees for 20-30 minutes. Taste like banana nut muffins.
I have also used blueberries, strawberries, dried cranberries (as muffins), raisins. I have even mixed in Protein Ultimate (vanilla and strawberry) to get a fast acting protein in the pancakes (egg protein is a medium to slow release protein).
If you have any additions to this recipe please email them to me. I am always looking for new and innovative ways to change up my eggs!
Smores Protein Shake
Okay all you smores fans. Just because you are dieting, you don't have to completely give up everything. So whenever you are camping or just craving the classic smores, throw this together.

1-2 scoops of Chocolate Protein Ultimate
1/2-1 Full Graham Cracker
1-2 Tablespoons of Low Calorie Cool Whip/Ready Whip
Mix all ingredients in a blender or Blender Bottle (Graham Cracker may take a little time to soften and dissolve in order to be used in the Blender Bottle).
ENJOY!!!
