About Recipe:

These stacks are a perfect pre workout/game snack filled with ingredients to support energy levels and focus. They have complex carbs, fiber, healthy fat, protein! Sometimes I give them to Xander before his games, to provide him with an extra oomph of energy.

These taste like banana pancakes meets matcha latte (you wont even taste the veggies!) For any followers who have kids, this is also a great recipe, to sneak your kiddos some veggies (just make sure to take out the matcha for them!)

Tips and Tricks:

Remix the ingredients: If you are giving to kids, take out the matcha, but keep the spinach! Its an easy way to sneak in some leafy greens. Let’s be honest, we (most people) all need more leafy greens in our lives!

Alternative Milks: I love using coconut milk because it’s creamy and coconutty. Feel free to use whichever nut milk you want!

Enhance your pancakes: These pancakes are amazing for preworkout/pregame because they have lots of great performance ingredients. Caffeine, L-theanine, complex carbohydrates, collagen, and phytonutrients. You could even add more functional foods to further improve performance. Ingredients like Maca Root Powder, Cordryceps and Lions Mane.

Key Nutritional Players:

Banana - great source of potassium, and carbohydrates to provide quick energy.
Oats- complex carbs again helping to provide energy as a quick fuel source.
Matcha- Caffeine source with l-theanine, it promotes energy and focus without the jitters.
Collagen- protein rich in amino acids proline and glycine to help support joint health and cartilage.
Spinach- sounds weird I know… but provides vitamins and minerals, phytochemical and fiber! Plus, you don’t even taste it, so it’s an easy way to add more greens to your diet! :)
