Protein 'Cheesecake-Like' Muffins

Protein 'Cheesecake-Like' Muffins:

1 can (rinsed) chickpeas/garbanzo beans

Fruit: 6 strawberries or 1 banana or 1/2c applesauce

3 tbsp nut butter

3/4c almond milk

1 tsp vanilla

3 tbsp maple syrup or honey

Blend in blender until really smooth and creamy.

3 scoops vanilla protein (I used WFitNutrition Vanilla Coconut)

1 1/2c oat flour

2 tsp baking powder

Blend. Add more almond milk as needed if it's too thick (protein powders absorb differently)

Pour into sprayed muffin tins or liners.

Optional toppings: choc chips, cacao nibs, nuts, coconut flakes, etc.

Bake 350 for 15-20mins.

As you can see I used caco nibs, extra dark choc chips, dabs of PB, and a mix.

CrossFit Drop In Etiquette Article

Since I encountered this on my 3 wk trip, it was a good read and glad I followed the proper drop in etiquette.

Dark Chocolate Covered Coffee Beans

So simple you don't need to buy, just make yourself!

-melt dark chocolate on double boiler or in microwave in 15sec intervals.

-drop small handful of beans into chocolate.

-stir so to get them completely covered.

-one by one pull out and put on parchment paper.

-keep adding beans until you're out of chocolate.

You can make as little or much as you want. 

Add to cereal or yogurt or granola or granola bars or ice cream or just eat plain!

I used cavemancoffeeco.com beans because they are roasted and have a very unique (non bitter) flavor.
