{protein waffles: recipe below}
19 weeks out!
I’m going to start posting recipes any time I post a food pic.
Just keep in mind that you will have to use the exact ingredients I use if you want the exact same macros I have posted here.
I’ve also discovered that not all protein powders are created equal when it comes to cooking with them.
So far I’ve used:
Quest Cookies & Cream Protein Powder
Quest Salted Caramel Protein Powder
and ISOPURE Zero Carb Creamy Vanilla (DO NOT USE THIS FOR COOKING!)
The first three worked perfectly! The ISOPURE did not work! I nearly choked to death it was so dry!
Now, don’t get me wrong. As a regular protein powder for a shake ISOPURE is great. Just don’t cook with it.
Also, do not try to use egg whites only for a protein pancake or waffle recipe (if the recipe says whole egg, use a whole egg). I’ve been trying to use egg white only to try to cut calories but it has not worked even one time with any of my powders.
