Overnight Oats (A Breakfast Alternative)

A Chocolate Whey Porridge Alternative:

The purpose of leaving the mixture overnight will allow the oats to soak up the liquid without the need for cooking. I find this useful when you dont want breakfast straight away and if you have to, for example, quickly get to work, you can carry this with you and guzzle it down an hour later without the worry of cooked porridge going cold. Plus the chocolate flavour makes it taste mega.

Protein Dessert Wrap

























Ingredients:

1 Mission Deli Wrap (i used regular, wholemeal would be better)
1 Scoop Chocolate Whey Protein
1 Egg (Whole)
10g Chocolate Philadelphia Cheese Spread


Crack the egg into a microwavable bowl, and add in the 1 scoop of whey protein. This doesnt have to be chocolate, I have made it with vanilla before, but i prefer this version! Using a fork, mix it all together until you have a smooth batter.

Put this batter into the microwave on full power for about 50 seconds.

In the meantime, take the wrap and down the middle, spread in the chocolate cheese. I used Philadelphia for this, as it was what I had available at the time. However, Nutella or something similar would do the job. Its not ideal, with the high processed crap content, so if you can find a sugar free or low fat version that would be perfect.

Take out the egg and protein batter, which will now look like a small cake. cut this in half, and place along the chocolate spread so that you can roll the wrap closed as you usually would.

Wrap it all up, and place on a microwavable plate, then blast in the microwave for about 20 seconds more, just so you can melt the chocolate without making the wrap too soggy.

Take it out, cut it in half and enjoy!!

Choc & Raisin Cookie Cake!

Protein Chocolate Cake Cookie

Myfitnesspal Macros Chocolate Cookie Cake
Myfitnesspal protein chocolate cookie cake 
Ingredients:

2 Scoops Chocolate Whey Protein
1.5 Scoops Oats
1 Egg
Small dash of Semi Skimmed Milk
Handful of Raisins


First add a scoop of whey and a scoop of oats into a mixing bowl. Crack open the egg and add that to the mix.

Give this a gentle stir to get it going, then add a small amount of milk. You want it like a batter, quite thick in texture.

Add in the 2nd scoop of protein and another half scoop of oats, this will thicken the mixture further so you will need to judge for yourself how much milk to add in.

Add the raisins, just a small handfull will do, and mix that in fully.

Scoop the mixture out onto a backing tray, and try and shape it into a square or rectangle, this makes it easier to cut into chunks later.

Stick it in the oven for around 5-7 minutes, the edges will turn a little bit golden and it should be firm throughout.

Take it out and slice into bitesize pieces.
