Feel like something sweet after your workout? But most protein bars are loaded with sugar and actually don’t have that much protein?
Try my favourite: Protein brownie! It’s delicious, high in protein, low in carbs and fat, super easy to make and always ready to go. I prep it once a week, cut it in ready-to-go servings and freeze it. Every morning I take out one piece and enjoy it after a badass workout!
