I was messing around last night trying to find a quick and easy protein muffin recipe to make. I came up with what you see below. Doesn’t get much easier than this!

Protein Muffin

Simple and Easy Protein Muffin

1 serving of protein powder
1 egg
1 tsp cinnamon
misc fruits or nuts (your choice)
splash of almond milk, regular milk, or water

Mix all ingredients together. You want to add just enough liquid to get a brownie batter-like consistency. Pour into small microwavable muffin dishes or bowls. The smaller the better. Cook for 30-60 seconds or until done.

Preparation time: 1 minute(s)

Avocado Shake Recipe

I have been wanting to do this one ever since I saw a variation of it on Mark’s Daily Apple. Overall it tasted pretty good. I sort of wish I had some vanilla or even some unflavored protein powder. A lot of the flavoring of the avocado was lost in the chocolate protein powder. The texture was really thick. Adding some more almond milk would have taken care of that.

Primal Pancakes

Tyson — Fri, 01 Jan 2010 16:48:50 +0000

On the weekends and holidays I like to make pancakes for the family. The kids get some quick ones from a Jiffy box. The wife gets gluten free and I have been making myself primal pancakes. Today, here is what I did.

1 cup Almond Flour
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon pure apple sauce (not sure if this is primal)
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

I scooped it onto the griddle in small doses and cooked about 5 minutes on each side. I topped them off with some homemade blueberry syrup (microwaved blueberries blended with a tablespoon of honey) and real butter.
