Well in 1924 Clarence Birdseye invented the concept of frozen food, but it didn’t take off it was marketed to the masses, after World War 2 when the country was into convenience and those god awful TV dinners.

My favorite is frozen berries, I love berries and eat them every day. I put them in my oatmeal, yogurt, cottage cheese, I also enjoy them in a great post workout shake.  Here’s the recipe now hear me out, the ingredients may look a little strange but it tastes amazing.

• 1/2 avocado
• 1/2 c berries
• 1/4 c Gatorade
• 1 scoop whey protein (vanilla, strawberry or plain)
• 1/2 c ice

Blend — sorry werid, but tastes AMAZING.  Thanks Clarence for giving me frozen berries year round!

Peanut Brittle Protein Shake Recipe
Here’s a fun way to satisfy a junk food craving without sending your blood sugar sky-high with real peanut brittle. At the same time, you’ll be nourishing your body with lots of protein and healthy unsaturated fat.
Prep Time: 2 hours,
Ingredients:

* 2 scoops vanilla protein powder
* 2 tbsp sugar-free instant butterscotch pudding mix (dry)
* 1 tbsp natural peanut butter (smooth or chunky)
* 8 oz. water (or low-fat milk)
* 3-6 ice cubes

Preparation:
Add all ingredients to blender, whip, and serve. I like to use chunky peanut peanut butter and add it last so that it it stays chunky (like peanut brittle) but it tastes just as good with a smoother consistency.
