Food Friday!!

Happy Friday Everyone! 

What a great week it has been.  Bend Adventure Boot Camp finished week 5 of its 5 week session this morning!  There has been amazing results and so much support built in the last few weeks. 

This entire week I have been bringing in yummy treats and sharing ways to incorporate new and healthy options to your day. I wanted to pass along all the recipes we shared in class along with today's yummy smoothie. 

You each have worked your booty's off and I hope you all have an "Active" and Healthy week off!

Next Camp Starts June 3rd. Looking forward to working on lifting more booty's to new heights!  

No Bake Protein Bars:

2 Cups quick Oats

1/2 cup natural nut butter ( I love sunbutter)

4 scoops of protein powder ( I am a big fan of Egg White Protein-vanilla flavored)

2 Tablespoon Chia Seed (I use MILA brand chia seed)

1/2+ cup of water to moisten

Knead all ingredients into a large bowl. Line an 8x8 pyrex pan with parchment paper. Spread dough into pan using spatula. Option to add chocolate chips, dried fruit or even spread with a thin layer of nut butter.  Freeze for 30 minutes. Remove. Cut into bars or bites. Refrigerate and enjoy!

On the go energy balls

1 cup almonds + 1 cup pitted dates + 1/4 cup shredded coconut + 1/4 cup chocolate chips + 2 Tablespoons of cocoa powder. 

Put all ingredients above except chocolate chips into a food processor or high speed blender. Blend until super fine.  Add a tablespoon of water if it does not clump right away.  Add in the chocolate chips and mix well.  Scoop out small enough amount to make 1/2" or 1" balls.  Mixture will be damp and a bit sticky but not too soft.  Place the balls on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Refrigerate for an hour.  Enjoy! Store in refrigerator until gone. 

Blueberry-Banana Protein Shake

2 cups water

1 cup Almond Milk

1 scoop of Egg White Protein-Vanilla flavored

1 scoop of Chia Seeds (MILA brand)

2 tablespoons of PB2

1 handful of spinach

Ice is optional

Blend until smooth and spinach is finely pureed. 

Enjoy!  

As for the Egg White Protein.  I use Gold Standard 100% Egg Protein.  I find it is one of the purest forms of protein and does not have any crazy ingredients to leave a funny after taste. You can purchase it at Max Muscle Oregon.  All Adventure Boot Campers make sure to request your discount, you all earned it!

Get Fit. Live Fit. Be Fit. 

Have a great weekend Everyone!
