I Wish These People Updated More Than Once a Year

Due to the strange popularity of the earlier "Cooking With Justice" post, I am back with another one that not only demonstrates my culinary prowess re: smoothies, but hopefully also my stunning ability to travel *backwards through time*.  That's right, this entry was written the morning of Thursday, August 17, 2006 but if I play my cards right it should show up to you as Wednesday, Aug 16, 2006.  And thanks for your concern, but I am not on any kinds of hallucinatory medications; the only thing I am high on is unadulterated radness.  

Anyway, the next recipe in our series:

Mr. Strong's Time Travelling Chocolate Egg Flip

Mr. Strong, the original bodybuilder
Mr. Strong, the original bodybuilder (look at those delts!)

(This recipe is branched off of the "Mr. Strong's Egg Flip" recipe in the 1970s Mr. Men Cookbook.  I would like to interject how proud I am that I *still* have a copy of this and its amazing recipes.  )

Once again, another incredibly complicated set of instructions to follow:

Ingredients:
1 cup of milk
1 scoop of chocolate protein (I prefer PVL's Stacker for this one - awesome taste)
2 eggs
1/2 tablespoon of vanilla extract
(optional) 3 packets of splenda
(optional) 1/4 banana (for thickness)

Once again, complicated directions:
1) Crack the eggs into a small bowl.
2) Put the eggs, milk, chocolate protein, vanilla extract, and (optionally) 1/4 banana and packets of splenda into the blender.
3) That's right, raw eggs.  This isn't a drink for wussies.  Besides, Mr. Strong drank this and he pressed entire *trucks* over his head.  With one hand!!!  You're not going to get there without drinking raw eggs!!
3) Blend for one minute.

This gives us a wonderful shake that consists of 51 g protein, 26 g carbs, and 13 g fat (433 total calories), which should both give you gargantuan triceps, and hopefully prevent certain denizens of Winnipeg from needing to forage on small forest creatures for dinner (see comments)!  As my grandmother liked to tell me growing up, "The road to 420 lbs of RIPPED MUSCLE begins with a single step."
