lemon + poppy seeds + protein = cake.
delicious, moist, lemony cake that will brighten anyone’s day! the cake part of this recipe is compliments of my sweet friend jenny. i can tell you how healthy this cake is or i can just show you a picture of this chick to prove she does not mess around!
yeah… i’ll have what she’s having!! :)
so jenny brings me some of this cake up to the gym. aah-mazing! however, as far as i’m concerned, i couldn’t quite call it cake with out any icing on top…so, i went straight home and whipped up some lemony protein icing to make it official! protein cake.

I just found your blog – I’d be interested in your training schedule and how you “lean out” while eating cleanly!
Hey! I train with weights 5 days a week and eating clean is what keeps me lean! :)
That’s it? What about cardio? Fats/proteins?
Cardio…only if I’m prepping for a competition, and then it’s only walking or some form of slow cardio. How strict my diet is also depends on competition prep. I keep my veggies green and my protein lean b4 a show.
