from making protein pancakes in high school to teaching my daughter 🥞 also, the way she says ‘tone it up’ gets me every time 🥺 who else loves the OG TIU pancakes? I started making them in high school when I worked at a nutrition store. this bodybuilder who always came in told me I could replace flour in recipes with protein so I started experimenting! I’d make cookies, brownies, muffins, donuts and pancakes. I also learned that women need protein and that it doesn’t ‘bulk’ women like many of us have probably heard— it helps balance our blood sugar, supports our metabolism, repairs muscles, helps to prevents heart disease, and increases bone strength and density! amino acids are the building blocks of life— helping build every cell, enzyme, antibody, and muscle in our body. hello healthy and lean muscles, glowing skin, and strong bones and ligaments! the benefits of protein are endless 💪🏼💪🏼 below is the recipe for the OG pancakes! TIU protein is plant-based, gluten-free, non-GMO and made with whole ingredients. remember to always check your labels!
