Protein Shake

Hi all I am back after a LONG hiatus! School, kids, and finals will do that to you!

Just made the most fantastic smoothie! Thought I'd share… I have read that I need to up my protein intake so I have started making protein shakes once a day after a workout or just because….

I am using Isopure CreamyVanilla as it is HIGH in protein (50grams per serving) and NO CARBS!

So here goes…

Mocha Protein Frappe
2 scoops of Isopure No Carb powder
6 oz water
6 oz cold coffee
2 splenda
1 tbsp of Hershey's chocolate
8 ice cubes

Stick it all in my NINJA (Hiiiiiiii-yaaaaa!!) and blend! 

SO DELICIOUS! Reminds me of a certain overpriced coffee place I love! :o)

Sidenote: Just did the same thing with a chocolate protein mix and it was delish as well!

Banana Ice Cream

HOMEMADE 
Banana Ice Cream
Hubbs and I went to Trader Joes today and I forgot to get Ice Cream (sad face). But I did stock up on 19¢ bananas. So immediately my mind went to this recipe that I ran across somewhere... it's looks easy and I have been wanting to try it for some time now....


It was SUPER simple to make and with only two ingredients (I used 1 tbsp. Mini Chocolate chips and two bananas) that are pretty much staples in my home, there was no running to the store for me! I will say that I over blended the bananas a wee bit so I threw the Ice Cream in a container back into the freezer when I was done. About an hour later Jeff and I grabbed 2 spoons and went to town! It was delicious and healthy! 
Try it sometime!
