NUTRITION: Strawberries and Chocolate Protein Pancakes with Sweet Basil Eggs


Strawberries and Chocolate Protein Pancakes with Sweet Basil Eggs

This makes an excellent pre-workout meal, it’s easy and it’s super tasty. 

For the protein pancakes:  
1/2 cup oat bran
2 egg whites 
1/2 scoop chocolate protein powder (I used MRM brand in chocolate)
1 tsp Hershey’s cocoa
1 dropper Chocolate Stevia (can use plain) 
1/2 tsp cacao nibs
1/4 cup water plus 1 Tbsp
1/3 cup frozen strawberries

Mix your oat bran, egg whites, chocolate pp, cocoa, Stevia, cacao nibs and water in a bowl to make pancake batter consistency.  
Cook as you would normally cook pancakes on a lightly sprayed pan, turning and browning both sides.  Warm strawberries and mash.  Spread over your pancakes.  

For the Sweet Basil eggs:  
3 egg whites
handful spinach
1 large, fresh Sweet Basil leaf, chopped

Scramble your eggs in a lightly sprayed pan.  When almost finished cooking, add your spinach and sweet basil.  Cook until your spinach is slightly wilted and remove from heat.  Serve and enjoy.
