But, it is also difficult to stay monotonous in our choices with food without curiosity getting to the best of us.
Here are 5 interesting ways to keep your taste buds excited without hurting your fitness-
• Protein Crepes-
Whether you like it the traditional way or are feeling experimental- there’s a protein-filled crepe for you to chew on. Cooks in a jiffy and you can even stuff with your favourite most fillings. We recommend using a dark chocolate (60% or more cocoa) with fresh fruits for a sweet version or eggs and stir fried veggies, if you fancy the savoury kind.

The best part- all of this is effortless, literally!
• Chia Peanut Protein laddoos-
These protein laddoos are so easy to make, they’re unbelievable. Dates, protein powder, peanut butter and some ground chia or flax or til seeds- all pulsed together in your food processor, rolled and chilled to perfection. Throw them in your gym bag for a quick snack before/ after a workout.

• Black bean veggie burger-
You can get your fill of protein even without the meat in these burgers. Made with black beans (good source of fiber and protein) and other veggies infused with protein powder, it makes for moist, indulgent chewy patties.
Recommended- Use unflavoured protein powder to suit savoury choices
• 3-ingredient-cookies
All you need for this easy one- banana, oatmeal and your protein powder. They taste good on their own but you can put your experimental hat on and add in to suit your cravings. Choose from dried fruits, nuts, pumpkin seeds, spices like cinnamon, etc.
