Post-wo breakfast ideas
In case you haven’t noticed yet, working out is the keystone of my life, but in order to see the results we also gotta pay attention to our diet. Here’s a list of what I usually eat right after my workout, I usually train fasted & in the early morning, that’s why the recipes below might contain a high quantity of calories and nutrients.

Xantan iced protein smoothie
Mix your fav protein powder (30g), 2g of Xantan gum, water/milk/plant-based milk and some ice cubes (I use 10 normal ones) & put them all in a blender. A very low calorie - high volume remedy that literally saves your definition phase
Overnight protein chia pudding
Chia seeds, your favorite milk/yogurt/juice, some crumbled biscuits or granola, & a scoop of your favourite protein powder is everything you need for this recipe. You can also use honey, agave or maple syrup to sweeten your breakfast, as well as fresh fruit or peanut butter as extra toppings.
Protein porridge
You can also mix up your favorite protein flavor with a delicious porridge: you can choose the liquid ingredient (it could be milk, plant-based milk or water as well), add the oat flakes & the protein powder, cook it til the mixture reaches the desired consistency, & finally add the toppings, some seeds or some fresh fruit, as well as vanilla extract or cinnamon to give your breakfast a lil bit of extra flavor.
Crunchy yogurt & apple sandwiches
fast and easy: sandwiches using apple slices, Greek yogurt 0% fat, and high-protein granola clusters.
Rice cakes with topping
You can choose between natural jam, protein creams, slices of fruit or if you love salty food you can spice up this recipe with some salmon, avocado & a scrambled egg, or some evo oil & cooked ham ;)
Protein smoothie
Your favorite protein flavor, banana (it reduces inflammation and replenishes muscle glycogen stores, ultimately promoting quicker recovery), apple (for an antioxidant action, as a matter of fact apples help with the prevention of conditions associated with the production of free radicals), feel free to add some spices such as cinnamon!
Protein pancakes
Whether it’s oats or cereal flour, animal or plant-based milk, you can cook delicious protein pancakes for your post-workout breakfast just by adding to your usual recipe the amount of protein powder you need. I also suggest you to add mashed bananas & and bit of salt to supplement the potassium levels that decreased during the workout. For an extra boost of flavour you can also add cinnamon or vanilla extract.
