This is a simple, high-satiety snack to boost your protein intake. While whole foods are ideal, protein powder is a great way to boost your protein intake.
The protein powder provides a boost of cheap bioavailable protein, while the coconut water provides minerals and some sweetness to round out the taste.
One scoop of protein will help get you through a spot of hunger when dieting, while two scoops will go a long way to boosting your daily protein requirements and helping you recover from your workout.
