george foreman and smoothie maker

Postby samurai69 » Mon Dec 06, 2010 11:02 am

just got a george foreman grill and a smoothie maker for the gym


so now can get steak/pork/chicken/gammon and sausages for lunch at the gym........getting bored with the ready made meals and microwave


just grilled some asparagus for a mid morning snack, i have some steaks and some microwaved veg for lunch and some gammon steaks for afternoon snack


asparagus needs a little more than the 4 minutes i gave them


smoothi1, is 1/2 can protein drink (banana) with 1/4 pot greek live yoghurt with 1/2 pack rasberries, 1/2 pack mixed fresh fruits pack and 1/2 pack of bluberries

i would normally eat the fruit anyway, so just seeing how it turns out...........if its good i will add in some glutamin and maybe creatine


.


smoothie is a little thick............milk too next time


ok without sugar, but will get some decent honey for a little addedflavouring as well as added nutrition

You probably have fans blowing all those sweet smells out on to the lifting floor too. If I lifted there when you were cooking that I would definitely add a f bomb superlative to your name :mrgreen:

One of the counter queens at a gym used to microwave popcorn all the time, drove me nuts. She also got the superlative before her name!

funny, not a fan of popcorn (ok occasionaly) but the smell is great......like fresh coffee on the stove

next one to try is bacon (apparently very good on the GF) now the smell of that cooking..........on second thoughts not a good idea as i would have to head off to local cafe for a good english "fry up"......maybe would do the same with the members............of course i could do a deadl with the local cafe

You are a cruel man.

I wonder if protein bar and shake sales would go up, or would they head down to the local cafe as you mentioned???

maybe the smell of coffee or popcorn would get protein bar sales up, but think the bacon would drive them down the cafe

You can cook what ever you like when I`m around because I`ll only piss you off by being able to double the amount & not put any fat on :finga:
