Cheesecake ★ Healthy, Simple & Delicious (easy to make)
1 egg
1 ripe banana
1 & 1/2 cup of low fat cottage cheese
1-2 scoops of vanilla protein powder
2 spoons of lemon juice (or lime)
2-3 spoons of Farina
3/4 tea spoons of coconut extract

HEALTHY & Protein-Rich OMLET with Cottage Cheese & Strawberries
2 eggs ( 3 eggs  for men)
1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder
1/2 cup low fat cottage cheese
1/2 cup strawberries (or berries)
1 tsp butter or Pam Cooking spray

Set a skillet on medium heat while you whisk eggs and protein powder. Place butter in the skillet and allow it to melt. Pour egg mixture into skillet. Cover and let heat until sides start to firm and egg mixture can easily be lifted with a spatula, about 3-4 min. Flip omlet and let heat for about 1 min.  Remove and place on the plate. Spread cottage cheese on top and sprinkle with cut  strawbarries.

BANANA ICE CREAM – Healthy Home made in a blender:
Peel, slice and freeze (for several hours) 1 banana. Place frozen banana slices in a blender and add 3-5 spoons of milk of your choice. Blend until thick. Top with 1 tablespoon chopped walnuts on top (optional). Enjoy!
I tried many things with that mixture. Here is a list of other optional ingredients to add to your banana ice cream. I experimented and tasted many things and these are I like (separately):
• 1-2 fresh strawberries chilled -not frozen from a bag- they taste different
• 1 slice of pineapple, either fresh or canned but chilled
•  a few pieces of a fresh mango
• 1-3 wedges of orange or tangerine
• 2-3 cubes of fresh papaya (when you add this, also include another sweet fruit like pineapple)
• 1 spoon of peanut butter
• 1 scoop of protein powder (either vanilla or chocolate)
*** Also, if you want to make it good but not so healthy, add a splash of Grand Marnier, Rum, Malibu or other flavored alcohols or your choice. Be creative and experiment on your own 🙂
Yum!
