this tastes great and is packed with goodness contains fruit dairy protein and some sweetness
Low Carb (only 11 carbs) Muffins made with Soy and Almond flours. Feel free to use any fruit you like (blueberries, raspberries, apples, etc.) and adjust the nutritional value accordingly.
We baked this in muffin tins at first, since we didn't have a doughnut pan, and they still came out awesome! My favorite thing to do is to top them each with 1 tbsp of Nutella, so I can have a low-calorie chocolate covered doughnut.
Good Substitute for more fatty BlueBerry muffins & very easy to make
Got this recipe off of sparks recipes. The original was not mine I just added a lot of different stuff to it and it turned out good.
I didn't have enough banana so I subbed in some pumpkin. The two together just need to add up to 1 cup. Brown or white sugar are interchangeable for this recipe
I needed a way to give me a protein boost in the morning, that was low on the calories, and quick for me to grab on my way out. I add 1/3 cup of yogurt, but you can use more apple sauce instead, to make it vegan. makes 12 to 15 bars
Egg whites and Mozerella Cheese make this a healthy option. Big serving--more of a dinner size than breakfast.
Don't expect it to taste like Jamba Juice! Their crap is full of sugar and calories. This is a great way to start the day with 2 or 3 of your fruit and veggie servings.
I make a variety of smoothies using these three basic ingredients: Vanilla flavored Nitro-Peak Whey Protein Powder, ground flax seed, and Kirkland (or Metamucil) psyllium husk fiber (smooth texture, sugar-free, orange flavored).
The Nitro-Peak has different types of whey proteins which are most absorbable and metabolize over an extended period of time -- and it tastes as good as this sort of thing can. I get it at www.vitaminshoppe.com in the biggest size. I use a full or half scoop depending how much protein I plan to eat the rest of the day.
I eat a healthy diet and it's still hard to ensure getting enough fiber, so I take some every day in the form of psyllium husk -- I also need to because of the effect my daily iron pills have on me.
The flax is full of Omega 3's and fiber -- you must eat it ground to get the benefits; whole seed will pass right through you.
My regular smoothies have the following in addition the the smoothie base of protein-fiber-flax-ice-water:
* 1 carrot, 1 serving frozen berries, & 1/2 cup kefir
* 1 sm zucchini, 1 carrot, half an apple
* 2 cups beet greens (when I get a bunch of fresh beets), 1 carrot, 60 g banana
I use plain lowfat Kefir (Lifeway is the tastiest, but Trader Joe's is cheaper, and since I usually mix it with stuff it doesn't matter). Kefir, a drinkable sort of yogurt, has more probiotics and less crap than most yogurts. Don't use flavored yogurts unless you want to add sugar calories. And sugar-free yogurts have preservatives, gelatins, and fake sweeteners -- and come in little plastic containers that most municipalities don't recycle. Kefir comes in #2 plastic.
What a tasty and easy way to sneak in veggies! The cheese is up to you and your personal taste but I find Feta to be the most flavor for very little! My daughter who hates cauliflower and who hate stinky cheese somehow ate this without any complaint. Shhhhh....
this is a family favorite I created, and continues to be a regular weekly breakfast meal.
