I know.
Feel free to roll your eyes.
You never need to like what I say—-you just have to try it.
at least once.
Here’s a recipe for faux-cakes that MizFit eats everysingleday.
Not always for breakfast (MizFit is all about any meal working at *any time* of the day) but always daily.
Sure they’re good for you.
SURE they’re a fantiztastic way to start/middle/end your day.
But despite all that they really are good.
MizFit’s Mishmashed Almost ‘Cakes
1 cup egg substitute.
1/4 cup cottage cheese
1/4 Fiber One (original)
1/4 cup dry oatmeal
1/3 cup protein powder. ANY BRAND. Read the label. You can use FLAVORED but just remember we want LOW SUGAR.
1/4 cup Sugar free syrup
Blend the above Chickenbus in a blender and VOILA.
Now, if youre me, you shall find that each time you make these the batter turns out a different consistency (what’s THAT about?).
Sometimes it’s a bit too thin and Ill add flax seeds to thicken (flax? an upcoming entry in & of itself) or too thick and I’ll dump in more egg substitute (pure protein, People!) or syrup (pure heaven, People!).
Play around with it.
You might prefer to add some honey or frozen/fresh fruit to sweeten and you COULD lessen the fiber & use 1/2 cup dry oats and skip the Fiber One.
After the concoction is complete you simply make pancakes as you would with any other (odd high protein) batter.
Me? I like to use a waffle iron every now & again for some texturizing variety.
Go forth and find your blenders—–I’ll wait.
Give em a try and let me know how they turn out.
