Protein Packed Ideas



Recommended Posts

People who can cook and bake I'm trying to come up with an idea of a way to make a Protein packed quick snack that I could use with the Protein powder. So what I'm trying to do is take the scoop of Protein powder or the two scoops and try to get it into one bite size piece. Imagine brownie bite, Jello shot something that would only be a few bites but get me a large quantity of the protein powder. I'm thinking about making a very strong protein pancake with a full serving of protein in one pancake that I can eat fast. Something that I can get it all in one quick swallow and done with any ideas that can anybody come up with a concoction that's edible

Sounds convenient .... I don't know of anything that dense w/ protein.... Except Protein Bars.< /p>

(Not clear on the concept of one quick bite instead of enjoying and savoring something you like tho)

I have seen "mug cake" recipes on here. But they use a coffee cup. And Protein Powder. They are thick.They are in the recipe section. You might have some better ideas from others in that area.

Good luck.

I am starting my 3 week post op on Monday. And since being nothing but Protein shakes and liquids for 3 weeks now. I dont know how Im gonna make it forever on Protein Shakes. My surgery requires 90 to 100 grams of Protein a day. I know once Im on real food I'll get most of my protein from my food. But if I need to catch up I dont want to always have shakes for large gram consumption to hit my goals. So I was trying to think of a way to substitute the sickly sweet shakes. I made tonight one pancake with non flavored protein. It came out ok, with 21 grams of protein in one pancake. It tasted more dense like bread. But I think it will be perfect for hummus dipping.

I have a recipe for Chocolate-Peanut Butter Protein Bites. They are yummy little balls of goodness.

Take two scoops of chocolate Protein mix, 1 cup natural PB and any other mix-in you might like (oats, raisins, mini choc chips, etc) Mix this all together and form into bite-sized balls.

I keep mine in the freezer and unthaw when needed. Nice protein packed treat!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
