Since reviewing the new pro metabolic friendly protein powder 40UP – Collagen Protein Powder by Collagen X a few months ago – see review here. I’ve been super keen to test this new product out in all my past protein powder recipes.
I’ve finally had a chance to find them all, test a few out and can confirm – this new protein powder works in all my past protein powder recipes!
I have always found that protein powder worked really well as a flour substitute which is great if we are craving a type of baked good but want to avoid starch. But up until now, the existing protein powders on the market would cause more harm than good in our Ray Peat Inspired Pro Metabolic Diet.
40UP – Collagen Protein Powder by Collagen X is different to anything else available because it’s a combination of whey protein and Peptan Collagen along with a number of other nutrients that make it more easily assimilated. There is way more information on why its beneficial on my original article here.
Protein Powder Recipes
On to my many protein powder recipes for delicious high protein snacks:
Chocolate Brownies with Sweet Potato
Peanut Butter Chocolate Cheesecake
Peanut Butter
Yes, I was a bit obsessed with peanut butter in the past but in these protein powder recipes, I now use Peanut Butter Powder which has nearly all of the PUFA oils removed. Mix the powder with a little coconut oil and ta da – a much better pro metabolic “peanut butter” tasting option. If you want to avoid peanuts altogether, then macadamia nut butter is the best substitute in our pro metabolic diet.
Enjoy!
If you are purchasing the new 40UP – Collagen Protein Powder by Collagen X, remember the 10% discount code – SLIMBIRDY – when ordering.
Happy cooking,
