So my current fitness quest involves the process of trying to “put-on” some LBS. Pounds, and more specifically… MUSCLE!!! I am a huge, huge, HUGE fan of lifting weights and watching my body change in the process and GROW! One of my goals for 2012 was to gain a SOLID, DENSE, 2lb.s of M.U.S.C.L.E!!!  I will rant later about the positive, and negative feedback I’ve gotten about being passionate about gaining, maintaining, and increasing my personal muscle mass and being a female…

My husband is constantly reminding me that I need to increase my protein to reach my goals. I’m having a rough time finding a protein powder I’ll actually drink. He tells me none are good, they are all gritty, and you “just have to drink em’, drink em’ fast!”  Chug them, he does… I however, like to enjoy what I eat, so here came this post about one of the easiest muffin recipes that is absolutely packed with PROTEIN!  Being a “REAL” fit mama, I am usually too busy trying to remember if we have enough diapers in the house so I don’t have a specific name for it, it’s a chocolate, banana, protein muffin. And, the recipe is very forgiving and flexible! (I like those kind! less room for error that way!) I’ve included in the photo the basic steps, hope they help!!!
