Protein Pancakes

Here is another tasty meal idea for you, and it is super easy to make.

These protein pancakes use 3, yes just 3 ingredients, oats, eggs, and protein powder. Simply blend together 4 egg whites, 2 scoops of oats and 1 scoop of whey in a blender and then pour into a pan and cook for a few minutes each side and your done.

It tastes good on its own, but if cooked too long it can be a bit dry so I usually add natural yogurt and some almonds or fruit to bring up the macros and make it a more complete meal. This morning I had the pancake with 50g almonds, blueberries and some black coffee. But try it for yourselves and see if you like it.

Blueberry and Cinnamon Porridge

This is a high carb and low fat breakfast I use some days to load up before a training session, not only is it an effective kick start for your day but it's also pretty tasty.
Take 100g oats and pour them into a bowl, then add 100g of plain natural yoghurt on top. take 1 banana and 50g blueberries and lay these on next, before sprinkling it all with cinnamon. Nice, simple and quick to make. and if you want to add some more protein you could add some nuts or a protein shake to the mix, but today I chose black coffee, leaving the protein until post workout.
