A BERRY yummy, BERRY delicious, BERRY supportive ice cream cake!

Berry Yummy Ice Cream Cake

I was in the mood for a yummy dessert the other day, that was something I could serve for a couple of non-Bootcamp friends. I wanted it to be pretty, but supportive, and so I immediately thought of a beautiful layered ice cream cake that I traditionally made for my son when he was little for his birthday. Years ago when I made it, it was neither healthy nor supportive, but it sure was...

A fast, delicious breakfast shake- probably my favorite so far!

Spinach Berry Blast

The other night, I had a hankering for the Chocolate Covered Raspberry Shake, but had no Chocolate Prograde Lean. I did have the Prograde Vanilla Protein Powder, though, so I put 1 scoop Prograde Protein, 1/4 c Frozen Blueberries, 1/4 Frozen Raspberries, 1/4 Frozen Spinach and 1/2 to 1 cup of cold water (more or less depending on desired thickness). Blend, and ENJOY! I am 150% serious when I say,...

This is an AWESOME, refreshing tropical drink made super quick, and super simple!

Prograde Pineapple Cooler

This is an AWESOME, refreshing tropical drink made super quick, and super simple! I took 1 scoop Prograde Vanilla Protein Powder, 1/2 cup of fresh pineapple, 1 cup cold water, and a big handful of ice, and blended it. For an even more tropical twist, either sprinkle with unsweetened flake coconut, or add 2 tablespoons of coconut milk to it. Enjoy my little taste of tropical Heaven!

Super speedy Edamame Asparagus salad !

Edamame Asparagus Salad

In the workplace, my entire lunch needs to be all of three things: 1. Fast 2. Good 3. Supportive This one works super well in all of these departments. As I talked about in my post “Supportive Nutrition in the Workplace,” I shop at the grocery store across the street on Mondays, keeping an ongoing stockpile of frozen and fresh veggies, and proteins like small bags of pre-portioned,...

A shake that’ll even have the King all shook up!

Elvis' Breakfast

This one comes at the inspiration of my friend Tod over at MOO92 who’d supplied me with the original concoction, I just cleaned it up and measured it out Ok so let me tell you- when you make this, you’ll need to use the Black banana that you previously would have used to make banana bread, for the most intensely banana-ey flavor) ½ a ripe banana, 1 tablespoon natural peanut butter...

INCREDIBLE!
