| I'm going to preface my recipe by noting that I am by no means even close to a chef. Those of you who know me probably just laughed out loud as you know my culinary skills aren't a strong suite of mine (banana eggs anyone?). Nonetheless, if you like pumpkin, and you need some more protein in your life along with healthier snack options, then give this a shot for a nice fall day treat. PUMPKIN PROTEIN PUDDING -1, 29 oz can of pumpkin (Libby's) -75 grams of vanilla whey protein (this is usually 3 scoops depending on the manufacturer) -6 tbsp of all-natural peanut butter -unsweetened almond milk (how much you use depends on the consistency that you want) Calories: roughly 1,230 kcal in the entire dish (this doesn't include unsweetened almond milk, but you will be using very little). Divide it up into portion sizes that meet your caloric needs. Macronutrient Breakdown: Fat: 51 grams Carbs: 94 grams Protein: 100 grams If you're not sure on how to break up the portion sizes for yourself, then reply to this email and I can help you with that. Enjoy! |
