High Protein Almond Pancakes With Strawberries Recipe

High Protein Almond Pancakes With Strawberries Recipe



Almond Pancakes With Strawberries

Ingredients
6 Egg Whites from either Eggwhites international or Muscleegg (he even has strawberry flavored eggwhites)
¼ cup steel cut McCann’s Oats (Quaker Oats are Genetically Modified!) Since I used steel cut instead of rolled oats I let them soak in a small amount hot water for about five minutes to “swell” before I added them to the recipe.
2 scoops Vanilla Whey Protein
1 cup or 1 canister of Greek Yogurt
2 Packets Vanilla Stevia
1 Tsp. Vanilla
1 Tsp. Organic Almond Extract (I may add just a bit more…I love all things almond)
7 Strawberries (cut in small pieces.) Please use organic….strawberries are heavily sprayed with pesticides!! 

Directions:
Combine all of the ingredients (except for the Strawberries) in a blender and blend until everything is well combined (about 30 seconds). You want to have a nice smooth “pancake batter-like” consistency. It may not be as thick as you are accustomed to with regular pancakes.  It may even have the appearance of a Crepe batter. (If the consistency is too thin for you simply add more oats.  I don’t want the additional carbs.)
Gently stir in the strawberries. If you prefer to mix it by hand a whisk will also work well.
 Pre- heat a non-stick pan or griddle over a medium heat and lightly coat with cooking spray. I used coconut oil cooking spray. You can test the pan by dripping a drop of water into the pan and see if it dances & sizzles. If so, your pan is ready!
 Pour the desired amount of batter into the pre heated pan.
This should yield about 7 medium pancakes.

Spicy Scrambled Eggs Recipe

 

Ingredients

• 2 large whole eggs and 4 eggs whites
• 1/4 of an onion, finely chopped
• 1 whole red chili (or chili to taste), finely chopped
• 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
• 50g cottage cheese
• Pinch of mixed herbs
• 2 slices of whole brown bread

Cooking Instructions

Grab a small non-stick frying pan and spray a small amount of olive oil cooking spray to coat the pan. In a small mixing bowl add 2 whole eggs and 4 egg whites. Whisk until the egg yolks and whites mix. Add 1/4 of onion, 1 clove of garlic and 1 whole red chili – all finely chopped. Now add 50g of cottage cheese and a pinch of mixed herbs. Whisk this mix fully.
With the frying pan at moderate heat, add the contents of the mixing bowl. Put your toast in the toaster now. Gently stir the contents to scramble the eggs. Once eggs are scrambled add them to toast on a large plate.

Serving Suggestions

I like to have the eggs scrambled on toast because its easy and only takes a few minutes. You could also use the mix to make an omelets. Serving on a bed of spinach leaves adds color, flavor and vitamins.
