Had to work near the beach the other day so I brought my lunch and some snacks in my super cool bento box. I sat on the beach, watched the waves crash and shared my meal with a squirrel. He really loved my cashews and pumpkin spice protein cake. Word of warning sharing your lunch with wildlife can be dangerous. Thankfully this time it went well.
Here's what my fuzzy friend and I ate...

Shelly's 5 Minute Pumpkin Spice Protein Cake
1 Egg, beaten
3 Tablespoons Milk
2 Tablespoons Sugar Free Caramel Torani Syrup
2 Tablespoons Canola Oil
2 Tablespoons Pumpkin Puree (not pie filling)
3 Tablespoons Multigrain Pancake Mix
2 Tablespoons Unsweetened Coconut
several dashes of Pumpkin Pie Spice
1 scoop Vanilla Protein Powder
Pinch salt
1 - 2 cup Measuring Cup or Microwave Safe Mug
In a measuring cup or microwave safe mug, Mix egg, milk, syrup, pumpkin and oil and combine thoroughly. In a separate bowl, mix pancake mix, coconut, spice, protein powder and salt. Tip dry into wet and stir till combined. Nuke in microwave for 2 minutes (my microwave is getting old and needs 20 seconds added now.)
Let it sit for three or so minutes (it pulls away from the sides) before tipping the cake onto a plate. Yields 4-5 slices. Great served with No Sugar Added Homemade Whipped Cream w/ a dash of cinnamon on top.
