True life changer protein dessert.

Protein dessert is so important – if you want to reach your fitness goals you have to nourish your body with protein 3-5 times a day. To have a dessert, rich in protein, that you can have as a snack is a true life changer! I like to prepare it in advance – 2 or 3 glasses and then enjoy it during the week. I am using quark cheese, which is high in protein and low in fat – you can also substitute for greek yogurt if you like. I also really love peanutbutter that has pieces of peanuts inside – in combination with soft quark and peanutbutter the pieces of peanuts are amazing to add extra crunchiness. This dessert does not contain any refined sugar and this is amazing for your body. I just added a little bit of maple syrup for sweetness, but the amount is incredibly low.

The calories in this recipe are also pretty low – you can definitely squeeze it, even if your calorie intake is very low.

*In this video I wrote cottage cheese instead of quark cheese. I had some difficulties with translation till I figured out that the correct translation is quark cheese.
