4-3-11

Started this morning with a drive to the grocery with my 9 year old Mia. She gave the scoop on all Justin Bieber during the trip to the store and then I let her in on some real music, Joe Satriani, on the way home. I think she's still into Justin.

Breakfast today was something completely different for me. A sweet potato and pecan protein pancake made with SFH grass fed vanilla protein. I doubled up the recipe and made four of these babies. They would probably make a good post workout meal too. Here's the recipe:


SFH Protein Sweet Potato Pecan Pancakes


Ingredients

    1/2 Cup Sweet Potato, cooked, cooled and smashed a bit 1/4 Cup Coconut Milk 3 eggs 1 scoop Stronger Faster Healthier Whey Protein 1 t Cinnamon 1 t Vanilla 1/2 Chopped Pecans


Directions

Put all ingredients in an inverted blender (magic bullet) and combine for about 1 to 2 minutes.
Heat griddle with a little coconut oil until hot.
Scoop 1/4 cup of batter into pan. Cook until bubbles appear on the top and pancake starts to set enough to flip without damage. Flip and cook for a few seconds more on the other side. Continue until all the batter is used up.
