In a blender, run until well mixed: 1 cup oats, 1 banana, 2 eggs, 1/2 cup egg whites, 4 teaspoons baking powder, a pinch of salt, a pinch of cinnamon, 1 to 2 scoops of protein powder, and 2 tablespoons flax meal.
Heat the griddle to medium-high heat and cook the pancake on each side until the edges look dry (about 1-3 minutes per side).
Put 1/2-cup of plain instant oats, 1 cup of mashed banana, 1/2-tsp vanilla extract, 1 tbsp of liquid egg whites, and 1 scoop of Whey Protein into a blender, and mix for 30 seconds. If the mixture is too thick, add a tablespoon of water to smooth it out.

Using your fork, pierce a few holes in your sweet potato. Then, microwave it on high until soft, which usually takes about 5 minutes. Flip the sweet potato over halfway through. If the sweet potato is still hard after 5 minutes, continue cooking it in 1-minute increments, sticking a fork in it to test for your preferred softness.
Let the potato cool, then cut it in half. Scoop out 3⁄4 of the inside and mash it together with 1/4-tsp of cinnamon and 1/4-tsp of powdered ginger. Then replace the combined contents into the sweet potato skin.
Top with 1 tbsp natural almond butter, 1/2-cup blueberries, 1 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt, and 1/3-cup low-sugar granola. Sprinkle 1/2-tsp of orange zest over the top for the finishing touch.
Pair this meal with a protein shake to pack a punch.
Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in the skillet over medium heat. Then add 1 cup of diced red potatoes and ¼ cup of finely chopped onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is soft, about 5 min. Sprinkle with garlic salt and pepper to taste.
Add 8 egg whites and cook, scrambling, until done to taste. Warm 4 whole wheat soft tortillas in the microwave. Spoon the mixture on top and roll up. Best served warm.
