Quick & Easy Protein-Packed Red Velvet Recipes

February 13, 2017 By Laura

These protein-packed Red Velvet Valentine’s Day treats won’t leave you with any regrets… in terms of nutrition, time spent, or (most importantly) taste! 

Vegas’s favorite dessert is red velvet cake.  When we first started dating I made her red velvet everything because I’m the best wife ever.  However, she wasn’t expecting the healthy, protein spin I’d put on it all.  She appreciates me, I’m sure…

This Valentine’s Day is no different.  I’ll most certainly make her see red, though not in the way I typically do these days.  😉

This post is a round up of my favorite protein-rich red velvet treats; all of which you can make on the fly.  I know some of y’all have to be as last minute as I am this year.  Bonus: they’re all pretty damn tasty!

You won’t believe this if you know me… but I’m going to a yoga event on Valentine’s day.  Granted, it IS at a brewery. 😉

What are your plans for Valentine’s Day?

What’s your favorite Valentine’s treat?  I love the Reese’s hearts!  So much peanut butter…

    Great list! I love red velvet flavored healthy treats, which is why I need to order more CoCo Cardio from iHerb soon, it curbs the craving fast! 🙂 Happy early Valentine’s Day! 🙂

    Everything looks really good BUT I have never had red velvet anything! You won’t find it anywhere really in the UK… Have I been deprived?
    We aren’t doing much for Valentine’s Day but I am meeting David after work for gelato… Can’t wait!

      Whaaaaat?! No worries though… it’s basically cocoa powder with red food coloring. 😉

    Only you could find a Valentine yoga event at a brewery! I mean, seriously!! Even my husband would be down for that kind of yoga 🙂
    I also love all things red velvet so I’m not even sure where to begin here…

      Haha! That’s the only way I got Vegas to go. 😉

    Apparently my plans now are to make/post flyers by day and consume protein balls by night 🙂
    Although I do love me some red velvet absolutely anything….

    • Laura says

      February 16, 2017 at 8:39 PM

      Consuming balls, eh? 😉

    So the first time that I had red velvet, I hated it. But it could have been because I was being obstinate due to the fact that I wanted a chocolate cake for my birthday. Thank goodness I’ve since wised up.

    You are a good wife. I’d marry you if I wasn’t already taken and swung that way.

    I am so down with these recipes! Need to try every one of them. P.S. I literally laughed out loud at the yoga thing. I don’t do yoga, but beer I’m always down for.

    • Laura says

      February 16, 2017 at 9:05 PM

      I got lucky… I just did the beer part. 😉

    Red velvet heaven! Wanna hear a secret? I’m not that big on red velvet. I don’t hate it, but I usually don’t go for it either. I don’t like cheesecake either, I don’t know what my problem is hahaha

    • Laura says

      February 16, 2017 at 9:06 PM

      You’re just nuts. 😉

    Yummmm. I love chocolate so I love red velvet-although I love it the most for cake because of the cream cheese frosting. Great round-up!

    • Laura says

      February 16, 2017 at 9:11 PM

      I’m with you! Cream cheese frosting is my favorite. 🙂
