Protein Packed Ideas



Recommended Posts

People who can cook and bake I'm trying to come up with an idea of a way to make a Protein packed quick snack that I could use with the Protein powder. So what I'm trying to do is take the scoop of Protein Powder or the two scoops and try to get it into one bite size piece. Imagine brownie bite, Jello shot something that would only be a few bites but get me a large quantity of the Protein powder. I'm thinking about making a very strong protein pancake with a full serving of protein in one pancake that I can eat fast. Something that I can get it all in one quick swallow and done with any ideas that can anybody come up with a concoction that's edible

Sounds convenient .... I don't know of anything that dense w/ protein.... Except Protein Bars.< /p>

(Not clear on the concept of one quick bite instead of enjoying and savoring something you like tho)

I have seen "mug cake" recipes on here. But they use a coffee cup. And Protein powder. They are thick.They are in the recipe section. You might have some better ideas from others in that area.

Good luck.

I am starting my 3 week post op on Monday. And since being nothing but Protein shakes and liquids for 3 weeks now. I dont know how Im gonna make it forever on Protein Shakes. My surgery requires 90 to 100 grams of protein a day. I know once Im on real food I'll get most of my protein from my food. But if I need to catch up I dont want to always have shakes for large gram consumption to hit my goals. So I was trying to think of a way to substitute the sickly sweet shakes. I made tonight one pancake with non flavored protein. It came out ok, with 21 grams of protein in one pancake. It tasted more dense like bread. But I think it will be perfect for hummus dipping.

I have a recipe for Chocolate-Peanut Butter Protein Bites. They are yummy little balls of goodness.

Take two scoops of chocolate Protein mix, 1 cup natural PB and any other mix-in you might like (oats, raisins, mini choc chips, etc) Mix this all together and form into bite-sized balls.

I keep mine in the freezer and unthaw when needed. Nice protein packed treat!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
