Blueberry Protein Pancakes

Tonight’s dinner was blueberry protein pancakes. They turned out perfect!! I’ll definitely be making these again (probably tomorrow morning!!!)

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup whole wheat quick oats
  • 1 scoop protein powder ( I used vanilla flavored)
  • 3 egg whites
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • blueberries
  • 2 packets sweetener ( I used Truvia packets)
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder.  Place all ingredients in a blender and blend for 30 seconds. Then pour onto a hot grill, add blueberries and cook like a normal pancake. I had my griddle at about 300 degrees and made sure to spray the pan before and before each flip.  I made 7 small pancakes but you could make 2 or 3 larger ones.  Enjoy 🙂

I also completed Day 75 of Jamie Eason’s LiveFit program today.  I went after work and had all the energy in the world today for some reason!  I love when that happens!

Here’s a peak at what my workout looked like.

I did 3 weight training circuits…each circuit took less than 10 minutes.

EXERCISE
 Set #1 
 Set #2 
 Set #3 
 Dumbbell Shoulder Press: 20 reps 
 Seated bent over Rear Delt raise: 20 reps 
 Front Raise: 20 reps 
 Side Lateral Raise: 20 reps 
 Upright Row: 20 reps 
 Calf Press on leg press machine: 20 reps 
 Standing Calf Raise: 20 reps 

Then the plan says to do 30-40 minutes of cardio.

I did a mixture of intervals and jogging on the treadmill.  I completed 30 minutes but felt good so I did 40…before I knew it I was on the treadmill for 60 minutes.  I don’t think I’ve ever been on the treadmill for that long!! Awesome!

But really Erin…you couldn’t have burned one more calorie to make it an even 900?

I worked out for 1:26 and burned 899 calories.  If I didn’t add the extra 20 minutes of cardio, I would have been in and out of the gym in a little over an hour!

On a sidenote…can you see my shellac manicure has lasted?!?! I got it 2 weeks ago and it still looks pretty good!  Some nails are worse than others, but I’m totally pleased with these shellac business!
