Breakfast For Everyone-Pumpkin Pancakes

Just a quick blog post this morning. As I was getting ready to make breakfast for the kids, I decided instead of just whipping up their pancakes, I would weigh out what amounts I use and post it up. I make this one often, so I usually just 'eyeball' the amounts. Here is what I used this morning: Pumpkin Pancakes 3 egg whites 15 g vanilla protein powder (1/2 scoop) 30 g old fashion oats 60 g (1/4 cup) canned pumpkin 2-3 g sugar-free fat free cheesecake pudding mix dash of cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice splenda or stevia to taste (optional) This makes 5 pancakes, and even my kids will eat them!!

I pulled up to the window and ordered myself an 'ice-dream' cone. at 170 calories, 4 grams of fat and 31 carbs, it fit perfectly into my meal plan. How sweet is that? I was able to go eat ice cream right after training and still be considered compliant. :D The joys of post-workout....by now you can tell that I love post-workout meals. I probably gave it away from my post about the oreo blizzard I make, or maybe it was the... read more 1 comments
