Tiramisu Protein Pancakes

Low on carbs, low on fat, but high on that protein! You can always add some protein powder for that extra spike if you feel you need it. Most of us don't get enough protein simply due to a lack of knowledge- did you know an adult should consume 0.36 grams of protein per pound? This means an average person weighing 180 Ibs should consume about 65 gr (2.2 oz.) of protein per day!

Starting the morning with a protein-rich meal is a great way to enjoy an energy surge and remain full well until lunchtime.
