Did you know that eating protein after a workout can actually increase the impact of the exercise, help repair muscles, and push them to grow stronger? Making protein rich-snack choices all day long also helps keep me fuller for longer, so that I have a long lasting and steady energy supply all day long.
Some of my favorite ways to kick up the protein content of some of my everyday foods is by adding protein powder!
- Add a scoop into my morning coffee
- Mix into oatmeal
- Stir into yogurt
- Make protein balls (make sure you check out my Cake Batter recipe below!)
- Add into muffins and other bakes goods
- Mix into salad dressing
- And of course, blend it into my favorite smoothies!
Not all protein powders are created the same, I recommend Collagen+ Protein Powder from Biochem because they combine collagen peptides with whey protein isolate to provide 20 gram of grass-fed protein. Whey protein is a complete protein, containing all 9 essential amino acids and is especially high in BCAAs and is KETO friendly. Collagen peptides help support healthy aging and strengthen bones, joints, and ligaments. Having both whey and collagen together in one protein powder ensures that I'm supplying my body with a dual action protein to fuel my body and my health goals.
One of my favorite things to make with protein powder are protein balls. Having healthy snacks on hand helps keep me on track and my energy levels up all day long and these Cake Batter Protein Balls are some of my very favorites!
Cake Batter Protein Balls
Ingredients:
1/2 cup peanut butter (sub sunflower butter if you have nut allergies like we do!)
1/2 cup oats, blended into oat flour
2 scoops Biochem Collagen+ Protein
1 tsp Vanilla
Directions:
Melt PB in the microwave for approx. 30 seconds. Stir in oat flour, protein powder, and vanilla. Roll into balls, top with colored sprinkles and place in fridge until you're ready to eat!
I love eating these protein balls for a quick snack, dessert, or before or after a run!
BioChem has so many other great protein powder options including plant based and vegan options! When I' m wanting to reach for a chocolate protein powder I love their 100% Vegan Protein - it too has 20 grams of protein per serving and is made with a blend of organic hemp, pea, and cranberry seed protein. Biochem also offers a really unique line of P+ proteins which are plant protein blends with added ingredients to address specific health concerns. I love the Vanilla flavored Mood blend, which contains ashwagandha to help with occasional stress and tension.
Which Biochem blend piques your interest? What is your favorite everyday way to use protein powder?
