Recipe from @lifewith.deedee

I love all things apple flavored for fall so I knew I had to make some apple pie protein yogurts. These are perfect for meal prep too! Here’s how I made this

1 c greek yogurt
1 tbsp sf cheesecake pudding mix
1 scoop vanilla protein powder @marigoldfoodstx
Mix together until smooth and refrigerate
When ready to serve add 1/3 c sf apple pie filling. You can top with apple pie spice, whipped cream & caramel, sometimes I add graham cracker crumbs or granola too

You don`t have to struggle to hit those protein goals anymore...

Recipe from @Curtis|Healthy Recipe Creator

Make these few swaps and you`ll be closer to hitting those goals:
•Adding protein powder into your cake/brownie mix (I`m using my favorite @marigoldfoodstx in the rich chocolate malt flavor)
•Swap non-fat plain greek yogurt instead of using oil (healthy fats and a bit more protein)

Simple swaps like these can take your box cake/brownie mix to the next level.

That`s what I did for these brownies I made and the chocolate protein powder made the chocolate flavor of the brownies pop even more.
