Love this for breakfast, great idea
Do you eat this cold?
I enjoy it cold but you can heat it up if you want to.
where do you get the slicer?
Click “shop my kitchen” at the top of the post
How many grams of protein do these provide please? I’m keeping a record of my intake so I know how much I need
it’s going to heavily depend on the protein powder that you use
I think that depends on you. Since you add the protein powder yourself, your choice of powder and the amount you add will dictate that.
Where did you get the jars with the spoon lids please?
Just got the link added. Click “shop my kitchen” at the top of this post.
Where did you get the container with the spoon in lid? Those look awesome
