Notes
*Optional: Top it off with walnuts or preferred toppings. If and when we have early dinners, this is a great meal to have. But, refrain from having this delicious meal after 4:00 pm EDT. Why? Because you want to regulate your blood sugar when you're most active and not late in the evening. I hope this helps! Enjoy!
