My FAVORITE meal is breakfast.
It always has been and always will be. Six months ago I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and I couldn't stand the thought of life without pancakes. I tried many low carb pancake recipes that were extremely unsatisfying until I found this one.
I found it on Eat Teach Laugh Craft's blog.
They are AMAZING!!
If you are new to almond flour and protein powder just start experimenting. I've found I like Hy-Vee brand almond flour and New Solutions Nutrition chocolate peanut butter protein powder.
Serve this up with some scrambled eggs and bacon and you have a pretty low carb but VERY filling dinner.
One more trick...use all natural peanut butter on your pancakes instead of syrup!
Since one can only eat so many eggs each day I found a new favorite for morning breakfast.
Smoothies!
I prep all a week's worth on Sunday afternoon and waa~laa.
This week's recipe is:
1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
1 scoop chocolate peanut butter protein powder
1 tablespoon PB2
1/2 container of light greek yogurt
(this week I've tried banana cream and boston cream pie)
Place all ingredients in individual blender cups and throw in the fridge.
The morning of add a handful of ice and 1/3 cup frozen blueberries and blend.
Enjoy!
Do you have a favorite low carb breakfast and/or smoothie recipe you would like to share? Or link? I love suggestions!
