What's on your (PHOTO) Friday Menu?
Very good question.
1) DH had bought me, by mistake, chocolate pb premier protein. They have been siting in the pantry for ever.
2) when I ordered a sample of a new protein line, in the package there was a bag of pb protein powder.
3) the old mentality of waste not.
4) the idea that eventually I will like pb.
This morning DH asked how I recovered from my pb Icecream and I shuddered. Just the idea of it gives me the ick.

I have never liked peanut butter and have tried to eat it at different times. It is a good source of protein and of course the waste not, want not comes into play. When I end up with something now that I don't like, I find someone who does like it and give it away. If nobody wants it, I just put it in the trash.

It's not even that much protein if you look at it closely. Tons of better sources of protein.

I've experimented with a few flavors of protein ice cream (not peanut butter yet, though) but came up with one the other day that really turned out great - I added some homemade apple butter and some extra cinnamon (because there was already cinnamon in the apple butter). Vanilla protein powder. It was very good! I think my favorite is still coffee, though - but then that's my favorite "regular" ice cream flavor, too!
For today l have a vanilla cinnamon in the freezer. I don't use anything else though (no apple butter), just PP and protein powder, and added cinnamon. We shall see how it is.
And I agree, coffee icecream is my favorite flavor too.

Good morning all and Happy Friday,
Life has been really challenging. I'm overwhelmed, frustrated, and have feelings of insecurity. Rationally, I know how to deal with it all. Subjectively, I'm in the thick of a jungle and only have a Swiss pocket knife. This too shall pass. It sucks right now, though.
QOTD- Never eaten in shower. However, I've drank beers in the shower. 20 years ago, that was my idea of living. Looking back, so horribly ridiculous.
B: Tangerine.
L: shish kebab, pita, salad.
D: Steak or carnitas street tacos, guac, charred knob onions.
