Good Morning Friday! Although its another wet and dreary day, yet again, I managed to wake up bright and early this morning knowing that I was off for my spin class at Soul Cycle. I threw on my Hunter boots and swam to class.
If you haven’t tried a class, then honey, you are missing out! Its one of the most intense workouts both mentally and physically and yet at the end of each class I leave rejuvenated and ready for the world. Not joking, its the best high one can get. I took a class with Lindsay this morning, she rocked the "h -e - double hockey sticks" out of those 45 mins. If you are in the NYC area and want to try it out with me, email me and you will forever be changed.
After SoulCycle this morning, I headed back to my pad starving and ready to eat my left arm. I made the most amazing protein pancake mix last night and within 3 minutes I had a nutritious, filling and & most importantly delish breakfast. Sorry for the fuzziness of the pic - but here is what they looked like.
As you can see, I was starving and couldn’t wait to take a bite before the picture. I would have died if I waited, I just know it ;)
Chocolate Protein Pancakes
2 cups whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 scoops of Chocolate Protein Powder
Pinch of salt
2 egg whites
2 cups almond milk
3 tablespoons of organic applesauce
Pinch of salt
2 egg whites
2 cups almond milk
3 tablespoons of organic applesauce
Stir together dry ingredients. Add eggs, almond milk, and applesauce. Stir until dry ingredients are moistened (batter may be lumpy). Cook on preheated griddle until bubbles form and edges start to dry. Flip and cook until lightly browned. I like to serve with walnuts and sliced bananas, drizzled with organic honey or sugar free syrup.
*For extra goodness - Top with 1 scoop of almond butter (you can substitute with soy butter or natural peanut butter. If your watching your fat &calories I suggest using PB2)
& Enjoy!
