Banana Pancakes!

I woke up really hungry and was craving pancakes (as ya do some Sunday mornings), and at my house every meal provides an opportunity to meet my protein and fiber goals for the day.

These delicious, quick, and easy banana pancakes checked every single box! They busted that pancake craving and provided great nutrition at my first meal of the day! The banana and that little bit of vanilla protein powder brought great sweetness, and I just had to top my pancakes off with a little butter and maple syrup! The butter and maple syrup added a few extra calories and carbs, but that's what's so beautiful about being just a little more intentional when you eat. I tracked those calories and carbs, enjoyed every single bite, and it's fine! 

Um... ...and this portion size? Wow. Needless to say, I was stuffed after breakfast!

Isn't it great too how you can tell that these aren't ai? They are certainly not perfect circles ...because they came out of a real home kitchen!

I make delicious and satisfying high protein, high fiber, low calorie meals!

When I hit my 50s and went into menopause, it felt like my body had been taken over by an alien! Despite cooking at home and eating whole, clean foods, I started gaining weight, felt exhausted all the time, and—let’s be honest—I was mad at everyone!

I found myself visiting doctors often, desperate to feel healthy again.

Everything changed when I discovered the power of prioritizing protein at every meal and lifting heavy weights to build muscle! I finally feel like myself again!

I make delicious and satisfying high protein, high fiber, low calorie meals that work if you are in a calorie deficit, looking for protein, trying to build and retain muscle or just want some inspiration in the kitchen for what to cook and eat!

I can’t wait for you to join me in my kitchen!
