I humbly offer my Sludge recipe for your health and edificat

Options
For a good post-exercise, glycogen re-building, muscle recovery, great way to eat up those pesky exercise carbs meal that's very filling and if you close your eyes it tastes like peanut butter cheesecake especially if you add a tsp of lemon curd or grape jelly...try Sludge.

1 serving is a little over a cup total, which is plenty..believe me.

Ingredients:

1/4 c raw oatmeal (I prefer not instant and organic)
1/2 c lowfat cottage cheese
1/4 c lowfat plain or vanilla yogurt
1 tbsp organic crunchy peanut butter

Just mix it all together until it forms...well..sludge.

Variations:

-I prefer all organic ingredients but of course that's optional
-Sub lowfat for nonfat cottage cheese and/or yogurt but increase the carbs and sugar slightly
-Use instant instead of old fashioned oatmeal, but it's "sludgier" with the thicker stuff
-if it isn't sweet enough for ya add a tsp of any sweet, fruity thing..I like homemade lemon curd but jelly works, too, and tastest eerily like a PB&J in a bowl. Just adjust sugar and carbs slightly.

    I dunno. . .I'm game to try it. Can't have bread, so if I threw the jelly in there, it sounds like a party to me.

    (I'm all about the cottage cheese lately. . .)
