Banana & Cream Cheese Stuffed French Toast

What you’ll need: 

• 2 slices whole wheat or multi-grain bread
• ½ banana
• 1-2 tbsp low-fat cream cheese
• 1 tbsp toasted almonds, chopped
• ½ tbsp honey
• Nutmeg
• Cinnamon
• 1 large organic egg
• 2 tbsp 1% milk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• cooking spray

Spread ½-1 tbsp of cream cheese on each slice of bread. Slice the banana lengthwise into 4-5 thin strips and layer banana over the cream cheese. On the other slice of bread, sprinkle toasted almonds, nutmeg, cinnamon, and honey. Place one piece of bread over the other making a sandwich.

Whisk egg, milk and vanilla in a shallow dish. Place the sandwich in egg mixture; flipping over to make sure each side is coated in egg. Sauté on low to medium heat in a nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray until golden brown.

Top with blueberries and powdered sugar.

Serves: 1 (Perfect!)

Mud Pie Protein Shake

Ingredients:

• 1 scoop Dutch Chocolate Isopure Zero Carb protein powder (or similar)
• 1/4 packet sugar-free chocolate pudding mix (from box)
• 1 tbs PB2
• 1 tsp instant coffee (regular, decaf, or imitation)
• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
• Stevia or Xylitol to taste
• 4-6 ice cubes
• water only if needed

Directions:

Pour milk in blender first. Then add all remaining ingredients except for water. Blend to desired consistency. You can thicken your shake by adding a couple additional ice cubes or thin it out by adding a small amount of water. I also drizzled a tiny amount of Walden Farms Caramel sauce on mine – don’t necessarily know that I loved the caramel.
