Re storing in tupperware: interesting… you just put them in the fridge for a week? And then you mix it again every morning? In a blender?
Yeah, I should have clarified that part: you obviously can’t prepare and refrigerate the entire thing. I measure and grind oats and combine that with protein powder in the tupperware container. Then in the morning pour that and the other ingredients in the blender and blend. The most time consuming process is grinding the oats, so it saves time to do that in advance. It’s a very fast breakfast.
Glad to see you’re getting good use out of that Japanese hand grinder haha. Guessing you have a separate aparatus for coffee and oatmeal?
Yeah, I have an electric grinder which I don’t use for coffee, just for oats. I only use the hand grinder for coffee beans. The hand grinder works for that because I’m only grinding a single cup worth of beans at once, so grinding takes about 60 seconds.
I freeze the bananas so they last longer and I don’t need ice.
That’s a good idea. What type of container do you freeze them in? I would assume you peel them and put into freezer bags or something?
Some people don’t like the taste but I dig it. Might be a California berkely type of learned apathy towards green stuff in everything. Since starting to do this in the morning, my energy levels have gone through the roof. I used to have a lot of trouble getting the right amount of greens and fruit in my diet. Now I do it all in the morning.
Sounds like a good habit to have. Making a shake is so fast and provides so much nutritional value. I think these habits are more important here with the questionable nutritional value of Chinese food.
