Happy Monday Everyone!
As sad as I am that the weekend is over I have learned to love Mondays. I always feel more motivated to eat healthier, workout harder, and be more organized. Mondays feel like a clean slate and for some reason that always makes me happy!
Before I share the menu with you I wanted to post about a fantastic product I discovered a few months ago and it has now become my FAVORITE breakfast.
In the mornings I give myself about 3.5 minutes to grab breakfast before work
(Im pathetic and am always late everywhere)
So making scrambled eggs with hashbrowns and a smoothie just isnt realistic for me.
I need protein in the mornings to fill me up and sustain me for atleast 2 or 3 hours but its very difficult to find a protein powder or protein bar that is healthy and not loaded with artificial sweeteners or 12 grams of sugar.
Ive finally found what works best for me:
NUTRASUMMA Chocolate Flavored Pea Protein
You can buy it ONLINE or I buy it at THRIVE which is an acai bowl shop located by Fitness Works on Higley and Basline. It is $34 for a 2lb container.
Here is why I love it
Nutra Summa Pea Protein
- Complete protein from 100% vegan source
- Promotes tissue repair*
- Provides 20 grams of protein per serving
- Free of soy and soy’s side effects
- Contains no gluten
- Easy to digest and absorb
- Outstanding taste with nothing artificial
Here is what I do to make my protein smoothie:
- 1 cup crushed ice
- 1/3 of a frozen banana (slices)
- 1 scoop protein
- 2 tsp. flax oil (cant even taste it!)
- enough water to allow the smoothie to mix
Blend and enjoy a breakfast full of protein and healthy fat!
236 calories if you include the flax oil and only 163 calories if you dont!
And here is the menu!
