Notes

Feel free to sub the peanut butter for any nut butter of choice or chickpea or seed butter of choice for those with allergies
Owyn plant based protein is my absolute favorite. It has clean ingredients, and has greens blend and includes probiotics. But of course feel free to use protein of choice
