I received samples from About Time Protein and they asked me to host a 2lb tub whey protein giveaway for you all! So a benefit or me and you!
The protein contains 25g protein, 0 sugar, 0g fat, 103 cals per serving. It's sweetened with stevia which is an all natural sweetener. Only 4 ingredients so no crap in their tubs!
There are 11 flavors which is hard to choose just one single flavor-lots of yummy ones like peanut butter and cake!!!
So to win of course there are some things you must do:
1. Follow my blog!
2. Tell me how you love to have your protein; Whether it be in a shake, something baked (healthy and clean only here!), etc. Leave the recipe in a comment please! I love new ideas!
Leave a separate comment for each telling me you followed and/or your best protein creation!
Check out their page and see what flavor you would like to try. They have other products as well like prebottled protein drinks.
Giveaway ends Sunday a.m. Winner will be chosen on Sunday! Goodluck!
I love mixing 2 egg white and scoop of protein powder and cooking it like one big pancake in a pan. You can add any flavors you want! Its a nice way to treat your sweet tooth while getting your protein! I'd love to try About Time!!
ReplyDeleteI use my protein more as something to bake with..or make protein FROSTING!!! yummy!! im not big into the shakes..not sure why. But baking things...i loveeeeee
ReplyDeleteI believe you said to post 2 different comments-- so here's the one that i followed you :)
ReplyDeleteAlso my favorite recipe with protein would be for protein pancakes:
ReplyDelete- 8 tbsp whole wheat flour
- 2 tbsp protein powder
- 1/4 cup no salt cottage cheese
- 10 drops vanilla cream stevia
- 2 egg whites
- 3 tbsp unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- 1 tbsp unsweetened applesauce
- 1 tbsp pb2 :)
I'm weird and love just adding water and freezing it. I eat it right after my work out so it's a nice cool treat after getting all sweaty!!
ReplyDeleteI've heard great things about the cake batter but mint chocolate sounds amazing!!

I love protein powder in so many different ways...I mix it with no sugar added applesauce as a topping for english muffins at breakfast, in a shake, and in microwave protein cakes. It's so versatile. I've been dying to try About Time's awesome flavors, I hope I win! Thanks for the giveaway :)
ReplyDeleteHey girl hey! I follow ya!
ReplyDeleteOk, so I love protein... A LOT! Shakes, pancakes, you name it. BUT protein brownies are the bomb! (best on leg day or chest day because of the carbs)
ReplyDelete1 scoop chocolate protein powder
2 TBSP Hershey Unsweetened Natural Cocoa Powder
1/3 cup Stevia
1/2 TBSP cinnamon
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 cup Arrowhead Mills Organic Barley Flour
4 oz sweet potato
3 oz nonfat plain Greek yogurt
4 egg whites
And if your macros allow it (and you've got a sweet tooth), you can add 1 to 2 oz of dark chocolate. 80% cacao
Bake at 350 for 30 minutes. (my oven is a little wonky so it depends on yours)
Let cool and dig in!
PROTEIN PANCAKES! :)

ReplyDeleteThis may sound weird, but I love using protein powder to make a "frosting". I usually do it as pre-workout, I'll take a scoop of protein powder, 2 tbs. pb2 (1 regular, 1 chocolate), and then about 2 or so tbs. of water and mix to make it thick like a spread then top two rice cakes! If I'm having it post-workout, I'll sometimes add a half a banana as well :)
ReplyDeleteI usually just have my protein powder in a shake after my workouts. I have found some recipes on blogs for protein cakes that are really good too! Like you, I'm always looking for new ideas!
ReplyDeleteI'm following you on Google Reader.
ReplyDeleteProtein waffles!!!! 1 scoop protein, 1/4c egg whites, 1 tbsp flax, stevia, little almond milk if the batter is too thick, then pour it in the waffle iron and wait for delicious magic to happen :)
ReplyDeleteProtein oats are also a favorite, just adding a scoop to my oats for a protein punch.
I tried about time not too long ago by making protein pancakes, they were SO good! I'd love to win this!!
I've been wanting to try this brand! I put protein powder in everything - my top 2 are my microwave protein cake and a carrot cake batter shake. Or blended with cottage cheese and flavoring to make "icing" for an apple cupcake. So many choices!!!
ReplyDeleteI follow the blog (and IG!) LOL
ReplyDeleteI love protein powder mixed with a little pb2 after a workout. I also make oatmeal cookies. I don't really measure but:
ReplyDeletegf rolled oats (approx 1 cup)
2 scoops vanilla protein powder
baking raisins to taste
cinnamon
unsweetened applesauce (to bind together)
one egg white.
Mix in a bowl and bake at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes. I don't normally make more than a few at a time because I will keep eating them! Lately I've had to triple the batch because my family can't get enough. =)
I do follow your blog... get your posts in my email at eatrunsai@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteI use protein powder in so many ways... mixed with yogurt to give it more punch, and also in baking, pancakes, smoothies, popsicles... one of my faves currently is in a 'cerea' I like to cook for breakfast:
ReplyDelete1 T ground flax
1/2 scoop whey protein powder
1/2 mashed banana
1/2 cup egg whites
cinnamon
2 T Almond Breeze
Mash it altogether and cook in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir frequently. It will be cooked in a few minutes. The egg whites will plump as they cook and you have a nice 'unoatmeal' cereal.
I like it with yogurt and fresh fruit.
Wow! Checked out About Time and they have so many wonderful flavor ideas... cinnnamon swirl! peanut butter! birthday cake! Would love to be able to try some of these. Thanks so much for the giveaway and introducing me to this powder. Had never heard of it before.
ReplyDeleteI check ur blog daily! :-)
ReplyDeleteI typically just use protein powder in smoothies, but since I'm transitioning into a more vegetarian diet I am working to incorporate it into other things.
ReplyDeleteFor the time being, my favorite recipe is 1 banana, 1 apple (pink lady or fuji), a few strawberries, 2-3 cups of spinach, a splash of coconut milk or coconut water, and a scoop or two of protein powder. The fruit changes depending on what it is in season or what is about to go bad in my fridge :-) I love it after my long runs or my strength training sessions.
I follow the blog and IG!
ReplyDeleteMy two favorite ways to use protein powder is mixed in with my oatmeal and in green smoothies. The protein tends to keep me full much longer when it's added in.
ReplyDeleteI love protein frosting!! Make it thick or thin... It never fails to satisfy. Now if I could get the baked goods flavor down it might be a winning combo!! LOL
ReplyDeleteOh and I follow your blog :)
ReplyDeleteI hate protein powder. I hate it with a passion normally reserved for racists and loaning money to family but I also hate meat and my nutritionist told me that I needed to start consuming one or the other. I have a strong dislike for chocolate and peanut butter unless it's in the form of a Reese's (which is oddly enough not laced with protein) and can't stand Strawberries so I bought this unflavored. When made with just water, it's tasteless. Completely, utterly, blessedly tasteless. Read More
ReplyDeleteThanx for your post. i also read Whey Protein are much usefull product for health care, but i want to know, can Whey protein help me for muscle building..??
ReplyDeleteYes indeed you can-Whey Protein has lots of aminos and nutrients that help repair and allow muscle fibers to grow when drinking it after you workout. Plus there is many more reasons to drink it just for your health.
