Topic: RE: My new favorite breakfast-overnight oats with caramel premier

Try maple exctract with the vanilla...totally good!  Not as sweet as the caramel, but I still like it.  I've done  vanilla and added frozen blueberries too.  You will become addicted!

Yesterday I made a pudding with chocolate premier, chia seeds and fat and sugar free pudding mix.

 

makes 2 servings (for me)

1 premier protein

3tbs chia seeds

1/2 low fat/sugar pudding or mousse mix.

 

i would beat the pudding mix and premier, then add the chia seeds.  Stir after about an hour or two so the seeds do t clump too badly.  Next day stir and enjoy...amazeballs!

it thickens but not really thick, but still tastes awesome!

Topic: RE: My new favorite breakfast-overnight oats with caramel premier

This is something I'd really like to try although I can only buy vanilla and chocolate here.  I'll squirt in a shot of caramel flavoring and see how it tastes..  Thanks for the idea!

Looks yummy.... I haven't bought the quest protein mix because it is expensive and not sure if I would use it. Do have the Kodiak though.... hmmmm...

Topic: Protein Waffles

These honestly taste like real deal waffles. So, so good!

 

Ingredients:

  • 15.50 g, Select Protein Snickerdoodle Flavor (one scoop)
  • 28 grams, Quest Protein Powder Multi Purpose Mix (one scoop)
  • 0.50 cup, Kodiak Cakes Protein Packed Power Cakes
  • 0.25 cup, Greek Yogurt, Plain
  • 0.25 cup, Liquid Egg Whites
  • 0.50 cup, Fairlife Skim Milk
  • 1.50 tsp, Baking Powder

 

Mix all ingredients in food processor or with a hand mixer. Spoon into waffle iron evenly and bake according to machine instructions. (Mine is about 2 minutes) 

I made 5 whole waffles, 20 individual squares. I keep them in the freezer in ziplock bags, 2 per bag and defrost as needed.

The original recipe called for 1 cup Oat Flour, but I used protein power cakes blend and greek yogurt for added protein and it works wonderfully. Enjoy.

Topic: Tuna Frappe recipe

This has been great for my pureed foods part of after surgery care.

 

Tuna Frappe*

5 hard boiled eggs

4 cans of water packed tuna

1Tbsp plain Greek yogurt

1/2 tsp mustard

pickle juice to taste  (I added 1Tbsp)

Combine all ingredients in blender & blend until smooth with no lumps.

__________

The recipe's huge because I have no patience for just making up 1 can of tuna at a time.

*Frappe was the highest setting on my old blender :)

Topic: Buffalo pulled chicken-slow cooker

Here's a recipe I played around with. There's a couple things I'd try differently for fun next time, but this was tasty! It's basically hot sauce with the seasonings you typically find in a ranch dressing, without the buttermilk powder or salt.

This works out to about 9 -3oz servings, but I think you can scale it to whatever amount of chicken you want, this is just what I had on hand.

In slow cooker add:

28 oz of chicken breast 

2 cups of Franks hot sauce

1t of garlic powder

1t onion powder

1/2t dill

1/4t ground pepper 

1T dried parsley

Thats it. Once it's cooked, I shredded it, and left it in the sauce on warm until we were ready to eat.

i added 1/2oz of cream cheese to my serving and ate it with a couple of celery sticks and red pepper. My husband had the chicken as is on a kaiser.

Note: 

next time, I think I'll substitute some of the franks for chicken stock, and see how that goes. I think 2 cups is a lot of hot sauce, but on the other hand, wonder if the stock would cut the heat too much..

also, I'd add dried chives, I just didn't have any.

nutritional info: 

this is not a low sodium recipe, so keep that in mind if you are watching your sodium. I ran it through MFP, and a 3oz serving comes to: 163 calories, 26.7 protein, 4.1 carbs. (Not including cream cheese)
