| High Protein Cheesecake! |
When I first started to understand the power of nutrition and its effects on my energy, focus and hello, BODY! the first thing I loved discovering was how to get more of those famous "lean complete proteins" in and how to make them taste great.
I noticed cottage cheese on the list and have read of the BCAA (branch chain amino acid) profile but I just could not stomach the lumps.
Learning what happens when you put cottage cheese into a blender might be my favorite thing I've ever learned! Its creamy cheese, and cheese is one of my favorites! The high fat version is not exactly the best option because in order to get that protein you are looking for, you have high fat content and that might blow your calories intake. The fat free version is a little...um, chalky is the best way to describe it. Its not as tasty but it blends ok. If you are on a strict plan this is the option. If your goal is to be lean AND HAPPY...choose 2% and you'll be AMAZED at how great this is!
The protein powder I choose is AdvoCare Muscle Gain. It has the full profile of amino acids and 25 grams of protein with 4 carbs and ZERO FILLERS. Developed to be pure enough for tube feeding.
