After competing in my first figure competition, I made it a mission to enjoy the foods I love without all the guilt. For the past few days, I have been craving sweet foods like cake. Normally, I would just eat the cake. However, I’d rather save that piece o’ cake for an occasion like my sister’s Birthday. So inspired by a recipe I found on MyFitnessPal (a great calorie counter by the way) I went about creating what I call, Fit Crepes. Not only did they satisfy my sweet tooth, they also satisfied all of my nutritional needs without the added calories. This version works well for workout days too. For those are the days you want a lil extra something in your system to use as energy to pick up those weights! Its a simple recipe and can be modified to your specific tastes. You can also check out the original recipe here.
Ingredients:
1 Joseph’s Flax, Oat Bran and Whole Wheat Flour Tortilla
1 Cup of Liquid Egg Whites
1 Egg
2oz Turkey Kielbasa (I used Hillshire Farms)
1/4 of an Apple (you can use more or less or none)
Cinnamon
1 Tsp Honey
Step 1: Whisk Egg Whites, Egg, Almond Milk, Vanilla Extract, and Cinnamon
Step 2: Dip Tortilla in the mixture
Step 3: Saute Apple Slices and Sausage with a pinch of cinnamon. Saute in cooking spray such as Pam.
Step 4: Cook the remaining egg mixture to make an omelette, again, use Pam
Step 5: Put omelette on “crepe” and top with sausage and apple
Step 6: Roll it up! Drizzle with honey if you please.
