I start all coaching sessions with a Food & Mood Minute, a bite size of content about how nutrition, exercise, and mood can help you feel good and improve your overall health. Monday was about turmeric, why it has the potential to boost your mood, and ideas for using it. We cooked, and I made a quick and yummy protein pancake (about 40 grams of protein!). Recipe is:

  • 3/4 cup of liquid egg whites
  • 1 scoop of protein powder (I used angel food cake)
  • 1 TB of ground flax seed

Blend all ingredients. Heat skillet on medium-high heat. Hit it with non-stick spray. Cook until done! Top with almond butter, berries, sugar-free syrup, or whipped cream.
