Ricotta Protein Pancakes

March 13, 2012 by Julie 61 Comments

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

Good morning!

Did anyone else’s sleep suffer last night because they stayed up late watching The Bachelor and After the Final Rose? I half-watched the finale (how obvious was it who the winner would be?), but was much more interested in the After the Final Rose show. Did anyone else watch? Thoughts?

Ryan even joined me for a bit of The Bachelor…

I told him Courtney was ahead by 20 points, which wasn’t a surprise since she was the number one seed. I think that if I discuss The Bachelor with him in sports-lingo his interest increases ten-fold.

Workout

Even though the drive to the gym this morning was a drowsy one, once I got going my workout ended up being pretty decent.

I completed the following cardio workout and was nice and sweaty by the end:

elliptical and treadmill workout

I followed it up with some stretching and ab work on the stability ball.

Breakfast

Breakfast this morning was very tasty!

    I think I get lucky- it’s not as late for me watching the Bachelor, plus I always tivo it so I can whip through the commercials and watch in half the time! I think is seriously regreting his decision- there has been so much drama from picking Courtney. He would have been better off picking no one in my opinion!

    I’m not a big ricotta fan is there anything you would suggest to substitute?

    I can’t believe I missed commenting yesterday! But, this was the first season in so so long that I have watched the entire season of the bachelor and while it was fun in an awful way, it seemed to be a pretty bad season to pick up with. Every week I thought he was going to get rid of Courtney, but then come to realize they really do deserve each other. I think they are both a bit weird and that maybe Ben liked how competitive she was about him?? So strange to me, but I totally agree that all the other girls got off lucky by not ending up with him! So sad that bachelor talk is now done though! Until next season 🙂

    I know you posted this ages ago but was just wondering if you use regular syrup for your pancakes or sugar free or light?
    Thanks
