Greens & Whey Smoothie

Sometimes I'll go to Jamba Juice with my friend and get their vegetable & fruit smoothies, I think they're pretty good. I decided to try and make one for myself after my workout.

Ingredients:
1 serving whey protein (I used vanilla)
1.5oz raw kale
1oz raw baby spinach
1oz blueberries
1 packet Stevia
4-6oz water
2-4 ice cubes




Prep time:
<5 minutes


Servings:
1
 
Clean everything! Add spinach, kale, and water to the blender first and blend so they can get...blended properly? Then add blueberries, stevia, and ice cubes.

Just remember, it isn't meant to be delicious. It's meant to nourish your body! ;)

Banana Blackberry Protein Pancakes

I wanted to mix up my post workout eating routine today, so I decided to try to make pancakes using my protein powder.

Ingredients:
2 scoops (3.75 tbsp) protein powder. I used Banana Myo Lean Evolution but you can interchange flavors/brands
1/2 cup egg whites
2 oz fresh blackberries
2 tbsp chia seeds
1/4 tsp cinnamon




Prep time:
5 minutes

Cook time: 
1 minute on each side

Servings:
1 = 3 pancakes.

 
Mix all ingredients in a bowl with a wisk. Heat up your skillet over medium heat and add cooking spray. Pour in just enough batter so that you've almost covered the whole skillet. Cook each pancake for 1 minute on each side.
