Awesome low cal and absolutely DELICIOUS protein treat ... want to try something different with a scoop of chocolate protein powder? after all there are tons of things to do with protein powder besides shakes...

These awesome brownies I made in LESS than 5 minutes ... 1 minute to mix and 4 minutes to NUKE and PRESTO!!! AWESOME BROWNIES .... the whole family love these ... and I made a triple batch for work the other day ...

It is so simple ...

CHOCOLATE PROTEIN POWDER BROWNIES:

In a cup mix:
1 scoop Chocolate Protein Powder (I use Whey)
2-3 packets Splenda or sweetener of choice
pinch of nutmeg
pinch of baking powder
couple drops of vanilla extract
teaspoon of chopped walnuts or nuts of your liking
one large egg
1/8 cup of water (do not make mixture too watery)
2 tablespoons skim milk
a few drops of olive oil
mix well 
pour in microwave safe square dish
nuke on high for 4 minutes ...
cut in squares

YUM!!!! very filling ... this entire plate is under 240 calories with 30g of protein and it is so filling you can eat less than a few squares in a sitting ... and have more for later....

DELICIOUS!!!!! WITH TONS OF ROOM FOR CREATIVITY!!!! CAN MAKE THE SAME MIXTURE AND ADD TO CUPCAKE/MUFFIN PAN AND DO THE SAME ...

YUM!!!!! 5 MINUTES PROTEIN BROWNIES TO DIE FOR.....

I am working my journey ... maintaining 203 pounds lost for 5 years and 6 months tomorrow ... WOOT ... 5 co-morbidities in remission ... kicked limited mobility in the butt .... I won't trade healthy for nothing ... and if I can look better too WIN.WIN!!!!

Thanks for allowing me to share ... variety and creativity goes a long long way ... I tweaked the  cake shake recipe shared on here months ago by a DS-er ... and came up with an awesome treat... I invite you to try it ... if you have not tried one of your own ... I pretty sure this is nothing new under the sun...

Thank you!  I was going to post tonight and ask if anyone had any recipes for homemade protein bars.  The good ones are so expensive to buy!  If you have any other recipes, please share.  I can't wait to try this one.  

One question,  what size pan did you use?

Thanks for sharing this! They look really good.

And BTW, my surgery is on Monday. Woot! I'm getting a little nervous and excited both. I just wish I knew how to sew. Even with just my pre-op diet, my underware is already falling down when I'm walking! lol
