Marble Fudge Protein Cake

No pic with this one yet... I need to work on my marbling skillz yo!  Still, tasted AMAZING!

Whatchoo Need:
Vanilla portion:
1/2 scoop vanilla protein (as always I used Dymatize Elite Gourmet Vanilla)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tbsp stevia
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tbsp water
1/2 tbsp non-fat Greek yogurt

Chocolate portion:
1/2 scoop chocolate protein (yup, I used Dymatize)
1/2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 tbsp stevia
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tbsp water
1/2 tbsp non-fat Greek yogurt

Mix that shit up:
Mix dry ingredients together for the vanilla and chocolate portions separately.  Then mix in the yogurt and water.  Consistency should be thick like pudding.  Spray an oven safe bowl or ramekin with cooking spray.  Simultaneous pour the vanilla and chocolate mixtures into the ramekin.  Swirl them together with a toothpick.  Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes.

NOTE:  If you get distracted doing dishes and leave the cake in the oven for too long despite the fact that the oven timer is dinging like fucking crazy but your mind is preoccupied, and your cake comes out dry, pour coffee on it.  It's frickin delicious!

Forrest Gump 'Shrooms



I was watching Forrest Gump this evening, and had a sudden urge to make shrimp.  Well Bubba naming off all his ways to cook shrimp forgot to mention that you can stuff mushrooms with them.  Well I definitely cooked up little pieces of Heaven.

Whatchoo Need:
70 grams cooked diced shrimp (I pan grilled mine with garlic)
75 grams fat free cottage cheese
1 egg white
1/3 cup chopped basil
12 baby portobello mushroom caps
Salt & pepper to taste

Mix that shit:
Mix the cottage cheese, egg white, basil, salt, pepper and shrimp together.  Place mushroom caps in an 11 x 13 baking pan (the 'shrooms sweat a lot when they bake so I wouldn't use a cookie sheet).  Spoon the mixture into the mushroom caps.  Bake at 350 for 10 minutes.  Makes 12, I ate 6.

Pumpkin Pie Baked Oatmeal



I swear to Bob I'll post recipies other than oatmeal.  Breakfast happens to be my favorite meal of the day so its the one I play around with most often.  I know I shit-talked about pumpkins with my caramel apple oatmeal recipie, but when I was a camp counselor my camp name was "Pumpkin" so I decided that I did infact need to make pumpkin oatmeal so I could LITERALLY tell people to eat me.  Wasn't my favorite, but still noms.

Whatchoo Need:
40 grams oatmeal
75 grams pumpkin
2 egg whites
2 tbsp DaVinci Chai Spice sugar free syrup
2 tbsp Stevia
1 tbsp vanilla extract
dash of pumpkin pie spice
dash of cinnamon
dash of all spice

Mix that shit:
Mix all ingredients together.  Pour into greased oven safe bowl.  Dust top with a sprinkle of cinnamon.  Bake at 375 for 35 minutes (the pumpkin makes it necessary to bake a little longer than most).

Garlic Chicken Pasta

I'm single, its sucks.  However, there are 2 upsides to being single: 1) I can go days on end without shaving my legs; 2) I can cook with as much fucking garlic as I want!!!!

Whatchoo need:

85 grams of cooked grilled chicken breasts, diced
40 grams multigrain pasta
Garlic garlic and more garlic
1 tbsp Dried parsley
4 cherry tomatoes, diced
1 cup reduced sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup chopped broccoli

Cook dat shit:

Cook the pasta in the chicken broth in a small pot with about 1 tbsp parsley.  After 5 minutes, toss in the mushrooms, garlic (sane people would use 1 clove, freaks like me use about 3), tomatoes and chicken, cover and simmer on low.  After about 5 more minutes toss in the broccoli, but don't mix so that it steams, but doesn't cook and get and soggy and mushy and disgusting.  Cover and continue simmering over low heat for 2 minutes until the broccoli looks bright green and steamed.
