Hey Chicks,
There is nothing better than wrapping up our indoor classes (outdoor sessions start on June 2nd plus you can still save $80 off!) than with a little TV love in my hometown of Ottawa!
Yesterday I headed CTV Morning to share some healthy love in 2 segments including a Supersweats Supersets workout and a nutrition spot talking about our “Complete in 3” rule to eating balanced, healthy meals and 3 protein packed breakfast recipes to do just that.
Missed the episode? Click on the links below to watch the spots:
SEGMENT 1 : “Super Sets aka Super Sweats” Workout
SEGMENT 2: The “Complete in 3” Rule for Chick Approved Nutrition + 3 protein packed breakfast recipes
I was so excited though chatting about my omelet muffins and overnight oats that we didn’t get enough time to get through my protein power ball recipes 🙁 But not to worry – I have included the recipe below.
CHICK FEED: 5 Ingredient Basic Chick Power Protein Balls
This is the base recipe for 6 chick approved protein balls. Each ball has approx 12-15g of protein. Place with these ingredients and make your own personal faves.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup of protein powder of choice (we prefer whey protein but use what powder you prefer: whey, egg protein, hemp, pea, etc)
- 3 tbsp of nut or seed butter of choice
- 2/3 cup of ground oats
- 2 tbsp coconut flour
- 1/2 – 3/4 cup of water
Directions
- Blend together all ingredients
- Start to pour in 1/2 cup of water. If needed add a little more until it’s a rollable paste. If too wet, add a little more ground oats.*
- Divide mixture into 6 portions and roll into balls
- Place in the freezer for 30 min
Note: For ground oats, simply buy large oats (not instant) and grind in your coffee grinder 🙂
CHICK TIPS:
- Sweet Babies: If using plain protein powder or need a little more sweetness, add stevia, honey or maple syrup
- Rock and Roll: Take the yumminess to the next level and roll your balls in coconut, cinnamon, dip in 80% dark chocolate or our fave choco sauce, grated orange, cacao nibs…the possibilities are endless!
- 6 or more ingredients: The above is just the base so add flavors and ingredients to make your fave combo.
FAVE CHICK POWER PROTEIN BALLS COMBOS:
- Vanilla Cinnamon Coconut Cashew Craze: 1/2 cup Vanilla whey protein powder, 3 tbsp cashew butter, 2/3 cup ground oats, 2 tbsp coconut flour, 1 tsp of cinnamon, 2 tbsp of shredded unsweetened coconut (for rolling)
- Ooo La La Orange Chocolate: 1/2 cup Chocolate Hemp protein powder, 3 tbsp almond butter, 2/3 cup of ground oats, 2 tbsp dark cocoa or raw cacao powder (sub for coconut flour), 10 drops of orange essential oil, orange zest (for rolling)
- Pretend PB & Jelly: 1/2 cup plain protein powder, 3 tbsp of sunflower seed butter (tastes like PB!), 2/3 cup ground oats, 2 tbsp almond flour (sub for coconut flour), 1/3 cup of chopped raisins & apricots mixed
Have a fab weekend!
