If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
Combine 2 scoops protein powder, 4 scoops rolled (old fashioned) oats and 0.25 scoop light peanut butter (or 1 scoop sunflower seeds) in a sealable bowl/ziplock bag. After your morning workout pour in 1/2–3/4 cup of boiling water and stir until the powder dissolves by this time the oats should be soft and chewy and ready to eat.
Several days worth of mix can be made ahead as none of it needs refrigeration.
This meal provides you with a perfect split of nutrients at 25% fat, 35% carbs, 45% protein, making for an ideal post-workout breakfast. For a higher proportion of fat, you can use full-fat, sugar free peanut butter.
