There is no better marriage in the food world than peanut butter and chocolate.  They just work together so well.  But, they can be a little unhealthy at times.  So, here is a quick recipe that combines the two flavors but has some protein in it to balance out the healthy with the tasty.

Peanut Butter Protein Cheesecake Bowl (this one slaps)

Ingredients (1 serving)

• 170 g nonfat Greek yogurt (plain)
• 20 g Choc or peanut butter whey protein
• 1 Tbsp (16 g) natural peanut butter
• 1–2 Tbsp water or unsweetened almond milk (to thin)
• Optional:
  • 1–2 packets zero-cal sweetener or a drizzle of honey
  • Pinch of salt + splash of vanilla extract
  • 5 g cocoa powder or a few dark chocolate chips on top
  • Crushed rice cake or 10 g granola for crunch

Directions

1. In a bowl, mix Greek yogurt + whey until completely smooth.
2. Stir in peanut butter (microwave it 10–15 sec if too thick so it ribbons in).
3. Add a splash of liquid to get that cheesecake/pudding texture.
4. Season: tiny pinch of salt, vanilla, sweetener to taste.
5. Top with cocoa/choc chips/crunch if you want it filthy-but-still-clean.
