Week 6 Day 5 (Fun Friday)

Today, for Fun Friday, we started out by sleeping in just a tad! Everyone needs a little beauty rest every now and then, right? :)

We got up at 8 and started prepping everything we would need to make breakfast once our morning workout was over! Then, Sacha hopped on the treadmill and ran a mile, we grabbed our bathing suits and then we took off down to the river!

For Fun Friday, we decided to go swimming. Which is usually quite fun.. but, today... it was TORTURE! There's just something about exercising that ruins the whole idea of swimming! (I mean, for me anyway.. Sacha had a blast!)

Once we finished pretending to be fish, we went back up to the house and made "brunch".

We had Chocolate Banana Protein Pancakes!

These things were yummy!! (As long as you weren't expecting them to taste like a pancake!)

I stole this recipe from a girl named Susanna Backman whose Instagram name is @tastyhealth. She makes some of the best breakfasts EVER!!!

Pancakes:

1/2 cup oats
1/2 tbsp cocoa
1 tsp baking powder
1 tbsp granulated sweetener
2 egg whites
2/3 medium banana
2 tbsp unsweetened almond milk

Mix ingredients with hand blender until smooth. Fry in a pan using coconut oil for about 30-45 sec each side.

Frosting:

1/3 cup plain greek yogurt

1/3 cup cottage cheese

3 tbsp raw honey

Mix with a hand blender and add water until desired consistency.

Now, I have to get ready for work!!! I hope you guys have a wonderful day!
