Oatmeal without the "Oats"

I only ate half of this bowl and was completely stuffed. I can't believe how filling this was. The list of ingredients is for half of the bowl in this picture.

1/2 scoop - Whey protein powder
30g - Walnuts (crushed)
30g - Coconut (flakes)
1/4 cup - Flax seed (meal)
30g - Green apple (diced)
50g - Banana (sliced)
1/4 cup - Almond milk
1 - Organic brown egg (egg white only)
Spices: 1tsp. Cinnamon

Calories: 506 | Carbs: 30 | Fat: 37 | Protein: 26 | Fiber: 11

The stores in my area all only sell sweetened coconut flakes, so I bought a whole coconut, split it and took the meat out. I then grated the coconut to make my own flakes. I crushed the walnuts in to smaller junks and sliced/diced the apple and banana.

I mixed all the dry ingredients (protein powder, walnuts, coconut, flax seed, 1 tsp. cinnamon) together, then added the egg white and almond milk. When everything was mixed up evenly I added the apple and banana.

I poured it in a small pot and heated it up at low/medium heat until it started bubbling and then stirred it for about 2 minutes.

Chocolate bomber (Protein shake)

I had a huge craving for chocolate last night, but I stayed strong and didn't have anything after dinner. So this morning I rewarded myself with what I will call the "chocolate bomber" :)
2 1/2c - Almond milk (unsweetened)
2 scoops - Whey protein powder (chocolate)
1/4 cup - Dark chocolate chips (dutch)
1 tsp. - Cocoa powder

I blended it for about 3 minutes until it was nice and creamy.
