Move over, protein bars! There's a new snack in town! Unlike protein bars, which tend to be rather nutritionally void (protein content aside) and don't really do much for your hunger, these little gems are packed with nutrients, fibre, healthy fats, protein and they're ridiculously filling! I'm fairly certain that if my close friends were asked to describe me in a few words, it would be along the lines of "insatiably hungry". These little powerhouse cakes actually keep me full for a few hours! It's a miracle!
2 TBSP Ground Flax Meal
1 TBSP Coconut Flour
1/4 Cup Pumpkin
10 grams Vanilla Whey protein (approximately 1/3 to 1/4 scoop)
