Strawberry Shortcake for Breakfast - E or FP

I love strawberry shortcake! I found a good deal on Strawberries! I've been trying to come up with more E meals! Combine all three and what do you get....?

 Strawberry Shortcake for Breakfast!!

E or FP*

1 Egg White

3 Tbsp of Ground Oats

1/4 tsp of Baking Powder

Dash of Vanilla

Dash of Cinnamon (optional)

1/2 tsp of Butter

Sweetener, to taste

(I usually use 3 'doonks' of Stevia Extract Powder)

Sliced Strawberries, to taste

Unsweetened Almond Milk or Fat Free Reddi Whip

Mix all ingredients, except strawberries and almond milk or reddi whip, in a mug or glass bowl. 

Microwave for about 45 - 60 seconds.

Top with berries and milk. Enjoy!

* If you only eat one recipe I think it's fuel pull. If I want an E, I double the recipe to beef up the carbs so it qualifies for an E.

Pumpkin Pie Mousse - FP

 

                                                 I'm not a huge animal fan, but one must admit, this is pretty cute!

 Folks, I am always on the lookout for fuel pull breakfasts. I am still trying to lose a small cow few pounds (40, that's a few right?) so I try to have fuel pull breakfasts often. There are not enough recipes to keep things interesting.

    I love the Fat Stripping Frappa recipe from the Trim Healthy Mama book, but I don't really like drinking it when its cold outside. I like the Muffin in a Bowl, but not all the time. There are really too few fuel pull breakfast recipes. I think this makes a nice addition to the fuel pull line up!

    This would also work for a nice dessert or snack! I love recipes that can pull double duty!

    I don't know where I got this recipe. If it's your's, I'm sorry! Please let me know and I'll give you the credit and a link back.

Pumpkin Pie Mousse - FP

1/2 cup of low fat cottage cheese

1/3 cup of pumpkin

1/2 tsp of Vanilla

1/2 tsp of Pumpkin Pie Spice

sweetener, to taste

Blend all ingredients together. You may want to add some liquid

if it is not blending easily.

Refrigerate until chilled.

( I was in a hurry. I just stuck mine in the freezer for a couple minutes)

Chocolate Raspberry Pudding - FP

  Oh Wow!! I really liked this recipe! It was a nice change from the regular Fuel Pull breakfast recipes. I will probably start eating this once a week or so until I reach my goal weight (60 pounds down, 40 to go). I'll still eat it after that I'm sure, just not as frequently. 


    Before I go to bed at night, I like to have a general idea about what I'm going to have for breakfast. I knew I wanted fuel pull, but I wasn't 'in the mood' for any of the fuel pull breakfast recipes I already have. I decided the recipe I was closest to wanting was the Chia Tapioca Pudding Recipe from the Trim Healthy Mama book. So I decided to go downstairs and make it up quick so it would be ready in the morning.

    When I started making the recipe, I began having all kinds of random inspiration (this was at 1:00 in the morning, I was clearly wired from too much coffee, too close to bedtime).

    After I was finished, It took me a whole five minutes forever to get to sleep because I was so excited to see how this turned out. I was like a kid at Christmas. It was pretty pathetic.

    This recipe will make a VERY nice breakfast or you can use it for a snack or dessert (I love the three in one recipes)!

    I was only a little disappointed. But then I tweaked it just a little further, and it was Christmas again!                                                 

             

 

 

Chocolate Raspberry* Pudding - FP

 

1 1/2 cups of Almond Milk

2 Tbsp of Cocoa Powder

1/2 tsp of Glucomannan

3 Tbsp of Xylitol

splash of Vanilla Extract

1 tsp of Coconut Oil

1/2 scoop of Protein Powder

1 Tbsp of Chia Seeds

A few Raspberries

 

Put first seven ingredients into a Magic Bullet type cup or your blender.

Blend for about a minute.

You want it noticeably thicker than the milk, but thinner than actual pudding.

Pour into a container and stir in chia seeds and raspberries.

Refrigerate overnight (give another good stir right before going to bed).

Eat pudding for breakfast (or snack, or dessert)

 

The next time I make this I am going to try to use 4 Tbsp of SJC 

and another 1/2 tsp of glucomannan for a slightly cheaper recipe.

 

* You don't have to use raspberries. You can basically use any berry.

I'm going to try chocolate strawberry next!

                                                                              
                                                               

Pumpkin Latte - FP

    

     This recipe is a great fuel pull breakfast that also gives you that fall feeling. You can also enjoy it for a great warming drink/breakfast in the winter.

    (News Flash Alert!!) Pumpkin is not only available in the fall. I'll give you a moment to recover.
Ya good? Okay, moving on.

    Stock up when your store carries it on their shelves in the fall and it will then be available to  you until the stores carry it again next fall.

    You can now enjoy pumpkin treats all year long ( although really, who looks for pumpkin on the Fourth of July? You may just want this all winter long.(and fall, of course) Your choice!)

    One of the great things about this recipe is that it is Fuel Pull (don't know what fuel pull is? Get The Book)

    Another great thing? It has coffee, it's hot, it's pumpkin (I'm rambling).

Essentially, it's Autumn Morning in a mug!
