Getting home from the store only to realize you don’t have everything you need for dinner is a common reality. Not getting what you need when you arrive home from a workout, however, is purely and simply a crime. Like making a list for the grocery store, you have to make it easy for yourself to eat well after exercising. The little prep it takes to make this post-workout protein pudding will pay off when you’re sitting in sweat with a sweet reward. Providing protein, carbs, healthy fats, low-glycemic sugar and rich chocolate flavor in every spoonful, you’ll have everything you need.
