Orange Julius-like Protein Drink

This kind of evolved over many years. It started with a raw egg in orange juice, which I didn't approve of. I replaced the egg with a scoop of soy protein powder, but it was slightly gritty and didn't taste right. Replaced the soy with vanilla flavored whey protein, voila!

Orange Julius like Protein Drink Recipe

Ingredients

Directions

Pour orange juice into a blender. Blend at a medium speed. Slowly add the protein powder.
Pour into a glass and drink!

Notes

Can be doubled for two, tripled for three, etc.

Unbelievable Bundt Cake

Bundt cake is a classic Christmas dessert, but it seems that no one's really sure how to make it correctly. The ideal Bundt cake is moist and rich, but not overpowering in sweetness. The richness and moistness in traditional Bundt cakes comes from butter, but this recipe substitutes applesauce instead and uses sugar-free maple syrup as a sweetener.

Unbelievable Bundt Cake Recipe

Ingredients

10 Tablespoons Applesauce (unsweetened)
1 Cup White Pastry Flour
1 Cup Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
2 Eggs
1 Large Apple, chopped
1/3 Cup Sugar-Free Maple Syrup
15 oz (1 can) Pumpkin OR Sweet Potato Puree
1 Tablespoon Cinnamon
1 Tablespoon Ginger
½ Teaspoon Baking Soda
2 Teaspoons Baking Powder

Directions

First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Next, mix spices, baking powder, baking soda and flour in a bowl. In a separate bowl, combine applesauce and maple syrup and add the eggs, one at a time. Mix well and add apple pieces and pumpkin/sweet potato puree. Add in dry ingredients and mix until smooth. Pour batter into a 10 inch Bundt cake pan sprayed with non-stick spray. Bake for 60 minutes or until knife inserted comes out clean.
