Single Lady Chocolate Protein Pancakes (FOOD PHOTO SHOOT)

[gringalicious]

Good morning my lovlies! Pancakes anyone?

So, life lately……….. Well, it’s been quite a whirlwind for me. Truthfully I don’t know how to put it into words just yet but I have plans to get my shiz together. For today let’s just have some pancakes, what do you say?

I’ve been trying so many new things recently and trying to re-acclimate to being in the States. It’s been months but it’s still very strange for me. One of the strangest parts has been the getting used to having so much convenience when it comes to food. Because of all the convenience being kind of new to us again, there has been a lot of eating out. My family really loves eating home-cooked meals, don’t get me wrong, but we’ve all missed having the availability of restaurants and, yes, even fast foods and packaged products. While I’ve definitely still been in the kitchen, it’s been pretty minimal.

There simply hasn’t been a need most days and with us being in the middle of travels, moving, and all sorts of Summer activities there also hasn’t been much time. On the other hand, I am not a huge fan of eating out or fast food. I much prefer to eat at home and create something new so I’ve been learning some new approaches to cooking. I’ve never really cooked for only one or two so it’s actually a challenge since I’m so used to making large family dinners. Haha, at first I was really struggling and more than once I’ve made WAY too much food at once.

That being said, today I’m trying something that I’ve rarely done in the past and sharing a single-serve recipe. Even this recipe, though, has some amount of short-cuts because I used Kodiak Cakes protein pancake mix. Of course it’s very simple to double, triple, or quadruple it for those who are feeding a group, but otherwise this is just the right amount of pancakes to start off a perfect morning. I topped mine with a sauce I made with this chocolate pbfit and of course berries because that’s my addiction!

As always, the recipe is available upon request. The first request gets an upvote.

ALL CONTENT IS MINE AND ORIGINAL! All of these food photos were taken with my Nikon D5300 and my favorite Lens, the Nikon AF-S FX NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G. You can find out more in my INTRO POST. And by the way, my intro post did a huge $0.21

Great dish, write a recipe?

[gringalicious]

Here it is.

Have a great day @serkagan!!!

Ingredients

1/4 (27g) cup Kodiak cakes Protein waffle mix
1/2 scoop (about 19g) chocolate protein powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon Himalayan pink sea salt
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1 - 2 teaspoons sweetener of choice (I used stevia)
2 egg whites
1/3 cup unsweetened almond milk (or preferred milk)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Whisk together the egg whites, almond milk, and vanilla extract in a small mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, mix the dry ingredients, salt, baking powder, sweetener, cocoa, pancake mix, and protein powder.
2. Combine the wet with the dry and whisk until you have a nicely thick pancake batter. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium high heat and grease with oil if desired.
3. Pour the batter into desired size pancakes and cook for about 1 minute per side. Remove and top with any desired toppings.

Many thanks, we must cook!

[jaymorebeet]

Hope everything's all right girl :). I can't imagine what a whirlwind it must be to be in one country for years and then be back in the states! Sounds like a big adjustment period! On a totally different note, I like using kodiak cakes for a quick weeknight breakfast for dinner. Good call, and also it helps get protein into a typically 'carby' meal. ;)

[gringalicious]

Everything is fantastic. Even though it is a whirlwind, it's fantastic. And, I don't know if you saw, My Dad is taking me to Steemfest, so we just booked airline tickets yesterday. I'll be posting about that soon. I have no clothes. Got to get busy. Thanks for the always awesome commenting @jaymorebeet

All your food looks amazing @gringalicious. Never stop this series. 😍

[gringalicious]

Thanks so much for the super kind words @themessup, I really appreciate it

[alemars16]

I feel you! We are six members in my family and I struggle to make food for 4 or less, I always tend to make extra food. Homemade beats eating out but sometimes we have no choice. Good recipe! :) (I love berries too, strawberries are my favorite fruit).

[gringalicious]

Yes, my family, all of them are really enjoying the convenience of the endless amount of choices now that we are back in the states. Maybe by the first of the year, they'll all want homemade again. Great commenting @alemars16

I could totally relate to what ya were saying! The pancakes look great and I just reviewed the recipes and added it to my to make list. Thank you as always @gringalicious

By the way - I think the colour of your mug goes really well with the colour of this protein. Call me crazy, I don't know why I noticed that right away.

[gringalicious]

Fantastic commenting @steemit-foodie. I hope you give this a try with your spin on it, I know it will be great
