    The Most Important Meal Of The Day

    Hey everybody!

    Today I am going to share with you my favorite breakfast for on the go!

    Protein Shake Oatmeal

    Chia Seeds 1 tablespoon

    Oats 2/3 cup

    Protein Powder 1 scoop (I’ve linked the one I use below)

    Milk (Almond or 1%) 1 cup

    In a small bowl or Tupperware, add your chia seeds and oats then mix together. Mix your protein powder with your choice of milk in a shaker bottle. When well mixed, pour your protein shake into the bowl containing the chia seeds and oats then stir together. Depending on the day, I sometimes only pour half of my protein shake into the oats and chia seeds then drink the rest later! Pretty easy!

    Chia seeds are amazing for you and in my opinion have no taste. They are loaded with nutrients and antioxidants. They have many benefits from reducing inflammation to helping you to lose weight! They are super easy to add into your diet. I think that this recipe will help you to see that!

    With this recipe, you can do one of two things. You can make this all at night and stick it in your fridge, then grab it in the morning when you are leaving. The other thing you can do is to eat it right after you make it. I like to bring mine not mixed together to work and eat it immediately after I finish mixing it together. I really don’t like mushy textures so I would rather eat them hard. I know I am weird!!

    The BEST Protein Shake

    Hey guys!

    Today I wanted to share my favorite protein shake recipe with you!

    ½ Cup Water

    ½ Cup Milk

    12 Ice Cubes

    2 Tablespoons Almond Butter

    1 Scoop Protein Powder (our favorite is Muscle Pharm Cookies ‘N’ Cream)

    Combine the above ingredients in a blender! Blend on smoothie mode and it’s ready to go! This makes enough for one serving! Adding a half of a banana is also an option. I cannot have bananas because I am allergic to them!

    I made a quick video below of me making this recipe! I doubled it so that I would have enough for my husband and I!

    Protein shakes are a very good way to get in your protein quickly after a workout! You should be getting some protein in about 30-60 minutes after your workout for the best results. Again, I am not a nutritionist, so you should not be replacing a meal with this, it is just to help increase your intake of protein.

    I follow a Macro based diet, which means I try to eat 50% carbohydrates, 30% fats (healthy), and 20% protein. I will go into more detail in later posts about this. I have found that by getting my protein shake in. It helps me to keep my proteins up high enough.

    I hope you love it! Let me know what you think below in the comments!!
