RECIPE: Baked Parmesan Seasoned Asparagus

Baked Parmesan Seasoned Asparagus

• Pre heat oven to 400 degrees
 

• Pre grease baking pan with nonstick cooking spray I used PAM.
 

• Rinse out asparagus bunches, and place on baking pan.
 

• Then sprinkle some black pepper, lemon juice, marjoram, and parmesan cheese.
 

• Then pop them into the oven for a total bake time of about 20 minutes. Make sure that halfway through the baking process you take them out and flip them so they are evenly baked on both sides.
 

• And then you’re all finished, they go perfect as a side dish with anything even fish tacos!

Fresh out of the oven!

Perfect side dish with rainbow trout tacos!

 

RECIPE: SWEET POTATO AND PB2 PEANUT BUTTER CHIA SEED PROTEIN PANCAKES!

SWEET POTATO AND PB2 PEANUT BUTTER CHIA SEED PROTEIN PANCAKES!

INGREDIENTS:

·         1 small sweet potato (peel and boil in hot water before using)

·         1 tablespoon of chia seeds

·         1 egg

·         2 scoops of protein powder (I used Vanilla Whey Protein Powder on mine)

·         2 tablespoons of PB2 peanut butter (pre-mix powder in hot water before mixing in bowl)

·         1/2 teaspoon of baking powder

·         1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Mix all the above listed items in a mixing bowl using the hand mixer to blend until smooth. After, just pour into a cooking pan for cooking. Make sure to pre grease your cooking pan to avoid your pancakes from sticking; I use a calorie free, sodium free cooking spray.

Once ready to eat choose your choice of toppings. On mine I used cinnamon, sugar free syrup, and one tablespoon of walnuts.

NOTE: Servings make about 3 medium size pancakes, estimating about 500 calories for everything, and about 60 grams of protein. I was only able to finish one pancake; they were SUPER FILLING and satisfying.
