Rest Day Recipe: Protein Pancakes with Peanutbutter and Blueberries

This week's rest day recipes comes from a good friend, Larisa Manzo, who recommended the protein waffles recipe from morethanheels.com. As with any waffle recipe you can also make pancakes--and that is exactly what Larisa did.

Protein pancakes with peanut butter and blue berries (331 calories/ 38 grams of protein/ 14 grams of fat/ 16 grams of carbs)

Mix following ingredients and cook:

• 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (Larisa used GNC Advanced Vanilla Whey Protein)
• 1 egg
• 1 egg white
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 2 tbsp water
• dash of cinnamon
• 1 packet of Stevia (Larisa didn't use it but the recipe does call for it)

Serve with 50 grams of blueberries and 1 tbsp of chunky peanutbutter and enjoy!

Carlee's Homemade Breakfast Bowls

TOTAL CALORIE COUNT: 460

Calorie Breakdown:

• Large White Tortilla-------------------------200
• 2 Large Eggs------------------------------------140
• 2 Slices Bacon----------------------------------70
• 1/8 cup Mexican Shredded Cheese--50

This meal was definitely filling and as always the calories can be cut even more by buying even healthier products such as smaller wheat tortillas, low fat cheese or turkey bacon (I was just using some leftover ingredients from around my house :P ). Happy Eating! :)

Carlee's Homemade Mini Breakfast Wraps

I don't know about most of you, but I often find it really difficult to eat healthy when life gets crazy busy. I like to make things ahead of time to take on the go that are simple, healthy, low in calories AND DELICIOUS. These mini breakfast wraps are are definitely one of my favorite pre-prepared meals--clocking in at only 260 calories. I usually will eat one or two fresh then freeze the rest of them for those mornings I'm running a little bit late :P Ingredients:

• Eggs (and milk for fluffy eggs)
• Cheese
• Tortillas

You can also watch me struggle to film myself making them on my Day 17 video. lol :P
