Protein Pancakes

Posted May 8th, 2009 by Charles Feng

For many who are trying to get in shape or gain muscle, the most challenging aspect is getting the right nutrition. It is so easy to become really sick of the daily protein shakes, oats and egg whites, and as a result one’s diet may become difficult to maintain for a prolonged period of time.

Recently I discovered a recipe for protein pancakes, which seemed like a breath of fresh air - it combines all the right ingredients, yet has the potential to taste like normal food. I have modified the recipe slightly to taste, and have decided to share it here.

What’s great about this recipe is that it’s so easy to modify - by adding more oatmeal, you’ve upped your ratio of carbs; by adding nuts such as almonds you’ve added additional (good) fats. One day I’ll try making these with flaxseed oil, but I fear it may taste terrible.

Ingredients
1 cup Quaker’s Old Fashioned oats
2 scoops vanilla whey protein
1 cup egg whites
1 cup skim milk
Cooking spray
Salt to taste

Directions
1) Add everything to a blender, and blend until smooth.
2) Heat up a medium skillet, coat with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
3) Pour enough batter to coat bottom of skillet (you should be able to make 3 pancakes with a 10″ skillet).
4) Cook on one side for 5 minutes, then flip (with either a spatula or by tossing in the air) and cook on the other side for another 5 minutes.
5) Take pancake out and serve. Repeat with the rest of the batter.

These facts are for all the pancakes combined. Your mileage may vary depending on what brands of ingredients you use.

Hip-Hop Hit List, April 2009

Posted April 24th, 2009 by Charles Feng

One of the great pleasures in my life is music, and accordingly I spend a few hours each month combing through new singles releases to find the best new hits that are out there. From this point onwards, I have decided to share the results of my efforts, by posting periodic Hit List updates to my journal. There is just so much music out there that has not yet made it to the airwaves, and I feel it’d be a real shame if some of this music was never discovered.

This month’s Hit List will be unique in that it will include songs released through this entire year, up to this point - as this is the first post, I am posting my current favorite songs without regard to their date of release.

Play All Songs Consecutively:

 

Individual Tracks:

1. Craig David - Insomnia Download

2. Francisco - Dip Out Of This Club Download

3. Tinchy Stryder - Number 1 (feat. N-Dubz) Download

4. Jahfus - Shut It All Down (feat. Ray J) Download

5. Swingfly - Touch And Go Download

6. V-Factory - Lights Camera Action Download

7. Cassie - Let’s Get Crazy (feat. Akon) Download
