Gluten-Free Protein Crepes

March 5, 2023 by Lee Hersh Leave a Comment

Gluten-Free Protein Crepes

Ever since I started college back in 2008, my TV watching sort of went down the drain. Freshman year in the dorms I was too busy making friends and my sophomore, junior, and senior year, I straight up just didn’t own a TV. Then, after college, I moved in with Blake and have been sort of ignoring the fact that we have a giant screen TV in our living room (men). 

Long story short, a little something called Netflix was introduced to me and now I’m hooked! Blake and I just finished watching White Collar (OMFG best show ever) and now we just started Orange is the New Black. Oh TV, you are such a waste of time.

Gluten Free Protein Crepes

But these crepes, definitely are NOT a waste of time! They were my pre and post workout snack/meal today. I ate some before my workout and some after. I gave my body what she was craving! 

I got the idea to make crepes today after they popped up on my newsfeed on Facebook. Lexi’s Clean Kitchen had a version on her blog this morning, which she modified from the cookbook Stack’d. My recipe was also modified…I added grains  and lots of delicious toppings!

Like peanut butter, banana, and honey (my favorite childhood sandwich).

And Noosa Honey Yogurt (my new favorite yogurt….I eat it every day!) with fresh blueberries and Seven Sunday’s Museli.

Originally, I was thinking that this recipe would yield only 2 crepes, because that is how many Lexi’s made, but I got 6 out of this recipe! #winning

I can’t wait to make these again. I have a really good idea for an interesting twist 😉

I can’t wait for this week to be over (It’s not even Monday, I know!), but Blake and I are going down to Kansas to see his family on Friday morning. One of his high school buddies is  having an engagement party. I LOVE his family, so we are really excited to get away for a 3-day weekend! 

Basic Ingredients

  • 2 eggs, large
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose gluten free flour mix
  • 1/4 cup brown rice flour (or another 1/4 cup of all-purpose gluten free flour mix)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • 1/2 ripe banana, mashed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 scoops Designer Whey Vanilla Protein Powder

How to make Gluten-Free Protein Crepes

  1. First, mash banana in a large bowl until smooth and liquidy. Then, add eggs, honey, and milk and mix.
  2. Next, add the rest of the ingredients and mix until smooth. The batter should be soupier than pancake mix.
  3. Heat a large pan to medium/high heat and spray with nonstick cooking spray or coat with butter. Then, using a 1/4 measuring cup, scoop crepe batter onto the pan. Use a spoon to even out the edges and make sure it is smooth.
  4. Let cook for about 45 seconds – 1 minute. If you have a nonstick pan, you should be able to shake the pan and the crepe should slide back and forth. That is when you know you should flip.
  5. Using a spatula, flip crepe (be careful!). Let the other side cook for about 30 more seconds. Again, you can perform the slide test to see if it’s done.
  6. Top with nut butter, fruit, nuts, granola, muesli, yogurt, etc.

High-Protein Mint Chip Energy Balls

Ingredients for High-Protein Mint Chip Energy Balls

  • almonds
  • oats
  • chocolate protein powder (I used plant based)
  • cocoa powder
  • chocolate chips
  • almond butter
  • honey
  • peppermint extract
  • water

BALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLS.

I don’t want this week to end. EVER. I almost told myself I was sick of making balls, but then I realized I wasn’t and just needed a 5 minute break from the food processor. 

Over the past few weeks I’ve been attempting to limit myself to 2 balls a day, but sometimes that’s been a HUGE fail. AKA I don’t want to make dinner, so I shall just eat balls. 

Need a post workout snack that’s made with real ingredients and loaded with protein? Make these high-protein mint chip energy balls for a guilt-free treat!

This ball recipe is made from an almond/oatmeal base. There’s no dates involved, but lots of chocolate and protein! 

I used Daily Burn’s Fuel-6 Plant Based Chocolate Protein Powder for this. Since this is a no-bake recipe, I’m going to say that any kind of protein powder will work, but don’t quote me! Each protein powder is different, meaning that the absorption rate is different. You may need to add more oat flour or more almond butter depending on the kind of protein powder you use! Also, each protein powder has a different amount of added sweetener, so just be mindful of that, as well.

Vanilla Protein Ice-Cream

March 5, 2023 by Lee Hersh Leave a Comment

Vanilla Protein Ice-Cream

Got 2 minutes and a food processor? Then you have time to make my favorite 3 ingredient protein ice cream!! For today’s recipe, I made my favorite variation using Designer Whey Vanilla Protein Powder. I’ve also used strawberry and chocolate protein powder to make other variations and all three are delicious!

Vanilla Protein Ice-Cream

In my opinion, no protein ice cream is complete without toppings. Look how sad and cold this naked protein ice cream looks…

Vanilla Protein Ice-Cream

He needs to be fully clothed an accessorized! My favorite kinds of toppings are anything that will give it a crunch. In today’s mix I used chia seeds and Kashi Go-Lean Crunch. Your options are pretty much endless. I have also added chocolate chips, sprinkles, dried fruit, nut butter, and even some Nutella.

Vanilla Protein Ice-Cream

Ingredients for Vanilla Protein Ice-Cream

  • 1 medium sized banana, frozen and sliced
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (I used Designer Whey)
  • 1-2T almond milk (I use Silk Vanilla Unsweetened)

How to make Vanilla Protein Ice-Cream

In a small food processor, mix all ingredients together and blend until smooth. You can pop the protein ice cream into the freezer to harden a little, but I can never wait that long! I usually eat mine straight out of the food processor.

Vanilla Protein Ice-Cream

Ahhh this recipe has me salivating.

Speaking of Designer Whey. I will be co-hosting a Twitter Chat with Designer Whey and Fitfluential tomorrow night at 8PM Central about baking with protein powders. I’d love for you to join! The hashtag will be #DesignerWhey…so follow along! Also, if you haven’t followed me on Twitter yet….my handle is @FitFooie_Lee (just in case)! I am a virgin Twitter Chat host…so bare with me!

Chocolate Protein Ice Cream

March 5, 2023 by Lee Hersh Leave a Comment

frozen banana protein shake

I wasn’t going to post this recipe on the blog because I am not in love with the photos, BUT it got a lot of hoot and hollerin’ on the FFF faebook page, so what the heck! I’ve actually shared a similar recipe before on FFF called Healthy Chocolate Ice Cream, so it is sort of a repeat recipe, but with a twist! 

Whenever I make my “ice cream” at home, I use frozen banana as my base. I don’t have an ice cream maker, so this is the perfect (and healthy) way to do it! This time, I added some of my favorite Designer Whey Chocolate protein powder to up the protein stats. 

Chocolate Protein Ice Cream

Topped with some mini dark chocolate chip and roasted peanuts. Now- that’s what I call a sundae. 

Here’s my other Chocolate Ice Cream recipe.

chocolate soft serve

Don’t forget about my Peanut Butter Chip Soft-Serve.  

soft serve-1

All three of these recipes would actually be quite a tasty summertime breakfast. That’s right, ice cream for breakfast. 

And now I leave you with some lunchtime fun from work yesterday.

Basic Ingredients for frozen banana protein shake

  • frozen banana, sliced
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons milk (I use unsweetened almond milk)
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons chocolate protein powder
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon mini dark chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon roasted almonds

How to make frozen banana protein shake

  1. Place all ingredients into a small food processor and mix until fulffy. It took me about 1 minute total. I stopped one or two times to scrape the sides.

Protein-Packed Salad Recipes + Superior Hiking Trail

March 5, 2023 by Lee Hersh Leave a Comment

Anyone else feel like summer is FLYING by? It seriously feels like The 4th of July was yesterday and now it’s almost August (insert #ihatewinter emoji). I know August is still Summer, but I just don’t want it to end! This past weekend My sister and 10 of her closest friends ventured up north to the Superior Hiking Trail for her bachelorette party. 1. I love that she insisted on going hiking for her bachelorette party and 2. I never want to leave Minnesota. Seriously, the northern part of this state is AMAZING. We stayed in Beaver Bay right on Lake Superior and right off the Superior Hiking Trail. We did 4 different hikes and I just didn’t want to leave! 

hiking

I think we need to make her bachelorette party an annual trip :) One of her best friend’s Tiff and I planned the trip and I was in charge of food. Of course I took to the blog for some recipes. We made some FFF classics: Chicken Burrito Bowls, Banana Pancakes (something similar), and Healthy French Toast Sticks (no sticks, just the french toast!). We wore these really cute tanks I designed for her party that say: The North Shore is Calling and I Must Go. It has the date of her wedding engraved in the bear :)

Anyways, I hope you all had as good of a weekend as I did. For now, you should check out one of these AMAZING protein-packed salad recipes from some of my favorite bloggers!

Triple Berry Protein Smoothie

March 5, 2023 by Lee Hersh Leave a Comment

Good morning to you! So I told you last week that I have some big news (in my world, at least). Well- I officially had my first prep class for my ACE Group Fitness Certification. I have been playing around with getting my Personal Training cert for about a year and I got to thinking about it…and it just makes sense for me to do Group Fit, rather than CPT…RIGHT NOW. (Shout out to my class at LTA, especially my instructor Jayme!)

Lifetime Fitness has something called Lifetime Academy, where they have curriculum that prepares you for your exam. It’s both online and hands-on, which is what I really need. The whole…here’s your book, read it, now take the exam, just doesn’t work for my learning style.

I was a little bit hesitant to take this class because, well, I work for Anytime Fitness Corporate. After thinking about it, I think it is quite alright. I actually really like Lifetime. The concept is very different than Anytime and there is no reason why I can’t take advantage of their awesome services.

The cost of this prep class was a little bit expensive (a little under a 1k). I look at it this way- I’d rather learn the proper way and actually know what I am doing. Plus, this way, I can get some hands-on experience, which will ultimately help me prepare for my CPT as well. On top of it, Lifetime uses their academy to recruit new instructors. Almost 75% of all LTA students get a job at Lifetime. The more experience for me the better! There is a Lifetime in St. Louis Park, which is where I would hopefully be able to teach on top of Anytime Fitness and Corepower.

Also, one of my (going-to-be best friends) Allie from Nutritional Epiphany is taking my same exact class! She went to the U of M and also went through the Tom Barnett Leadership Program (A leadership program I took my senior year). We are long lost twins that are reuniting in our dream land…fitness.

In celebration of my future Group X career…here is one of my favorite post workout smoothies! Triple Berry Protein Smoothie.

Like most of the smoothies I eat…It’s made with Designer Whey Protein Powder, Silk Alomond Milk, and Frozen Mixed Berries from Target.
