A Full Day of Eating!

I posted this picture on Instagram stories yesterday and so many of you asked me for recipes so here they are!

Breakfast: Protein Pancakes

Macros 
Calories: 352
Protein: 27g
Fat: 5g
Carbs: 49g

Ingredients:
1 Scoop of vanilla or cinnamon protein powder (I use 1 Up Nutrition)
1/2 of a banana
1/4 cup coconut or chickpea flour
1 TSP baking powder
1/2 C unsweetened almond milk

Sugar free maple syrup
Blueberries
Strawberries

How to Make!

  1. Combine ingredients except for berries and syrup in a blender.
  2. Spray a griddle or griddle pan (or really any flat pan you have!) with a nonstick olive oil based spray.
  3. Pour batter onto griddle into pancake shapes (you can get creative here)!
  4. *Optional* I like to poke my blueberries into the pancakes right after I pour them and then use my finger to coat them with batter so they don’t bubble out as much! A trick my Mom taught me!
  5. Cook until you start to see them golden brown (I check them after a few minutes)
  6. Flip! Cook until golden brown on the other side.
  7. Plate, add strawberries and extra blueberries, add maple syrup.
  8. ENJOY!

Lunch: Eggplant Primavera

Ingredients:

1 large chicken breast, cubed
1/2 Eggplant, cubed
1 Cup of broccoli florets
½ a white or red onion, sliced
1 large red bell pepper, sliced
1/2 Cup of pasta sauce
¼ Cup parmesan cheese
Sprinkle of pink sea salt
Sprinkle of pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil

How to Make:

  1. Cut up chicken breast and heat some oil in a skillet. Place chicken in the skillet to cook on medium, flipping after about 6 minutes.
  2. Add oil to another skillet and add in chopped up veggies. Stir them around every few minutes until cooked.
  3. Warm pasta sauce in the microwave.
  4. When veggies are cooked, place them on a plate, topping them with the chicken, pasta sauce and Parmesan cheese.
  5. Enjoy!

Dinner: Salmon and a Large Salad

Ingredients:

4 oz of Salmon
Curley Parsley
Pink Sea Salt
Pepper
Lemon Juice
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil

Spring Mix
1 C Cucumber
1 C Grape Tomato’s (or any tomato’s I just prefer these!)
Feta Cheese
Basil Leaves
Sliced Almonds
Your favorite light dressing

How to Make:

  1. In a pan, drop in 1 Tablespoon of olive oil and let it warm up so it spreads around. Once it is a little warm, shake the pan around so it is coated.
  2. Place the salmon in the skillet with the skin on, but place it flesh side down so all you see is the back of the skin.
  3. While the salmon is cooking, combine the salad ingredients on a plate and drizzle with dressin.
  4. After 5-10 minutes (depending on how hot your stove is) flip the salmon so it cooks skin side down for a few extra minutes until cooked through. You know it is cooked when it flakes easily with a fork. Season with sea salt, pepper, and parsley.
  5. Add salmon to the plate with salad.
  6. Enjoy!

Dessert: Protein Mug Cake!

I’m OBSESSED with these lately! Omg! So good!

1 scoop protein powder (I used 1 Up Nutrition Cinnamon French Toast)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon coconut or chickpea flour
2 tablespoons almond milk
2 tablespoons egg whites
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dark chocolate chips (who am I to tell you how many…)
Sugar free maple syrup

How to Make:

  1. Combine dry ingredients.
  2. Add in wet ingredients
  3. Throw some chocolate chips in there so they get all gooey
  4. Cook for 1 min in the microwave
  5. Add more chocolate chips
  6. Drizzle with sugar free maple syrup
  7. Enjoy the most bomb thing you will have eaten today!
Peanut butter as a topping is another option!

My snacks for the day:

Morning snack: Pina Colada Protein shake- 1 Scoop of 1 Up Nutrition Coconut Ice cream protein powder, 1 can of pineapple juice (or some slices of fresh pineapple!), 1/4 C of almond milk, and a handful of ice in the blender. So tropical!

Afternoon Snack: Dannon Protein Yogurt and an Apple.

I was pretty darn close to hitting my macros this day! I also drank 130 ml of water!

I’m not affiliated with 1 Up Nutrition, it’s just the protein and supplements I’ve been using for YEARS. *Sponsor me pleaseeee LOL*
