Why this works for GLP-1 users

When you’re on GLP-1 medications, hunger cues can vanish like socks in the dryer, leaving you feeling uncertain about your body’s signals. In this context, protein becomes less “nice to have” and more “non-negotiable,” as it plays a crucial role in sustaining muscle mass and supporting metabolic processes. This recipe is protein-dense, small-volume, and easy to portion, making it ideal when full hits fast but your muscles, metabolism, and blood sugar still need backup. The balanced combination of flavors and nutrients ensures that you not only meet your protein requirements but also enjoy a delicious meal that can easily fit into your busy lifestyle. Whether you’re looking for a quick lunch or a satisfying dinner, this recipe provides the essential support your body craves without causing discomfort.

Ingredients

• 2 scoops Ryse Marshmallow Protein Powder
• 3 teaspoons Chobani non-fat Greek yogurt
• 3 teaspoons SunButter Sunflower Butter
• 1/4 cup chips of choice
  (Lily’s white chocolate chips are elite behavior, just saying)

---

Instructions

1. Toss everything into a bowl.
2. Mix until thick, creamy, and suspiciously dessert-like.
3. Freeze for about 1 hour to let it firm up.
4. Portion into balls or two small bowls.
5. Store frozen or chilled.

Serving tip:
I like mine slightly softer, so I let it thaw in the fridge for a bit before eating. If you prefer a firmer “cookie dough bite,” keep it frozen longer. You’re the boss here.

Protein per serving

How you portion matters, especially when smaller servings are all you can handle.

• 6 servings: ~10g protein each
• 8 servings: ~7.5g protein each
• 10 servings: ~6g protein each

For many people on GLP-1s, 6–10 g of protein per snack is the sweet spot when full hits fast but you still need something substantial to carry you through until your next meal. This amount of protein not only helps to stave off hunger but also provides a good balance of energy and nutrients, allowing for better satiety without overwhelming the digestive system. Incorporating protein-rich snacks into your diet can help maintain energy levels, support muscle health, and keep cravings at bay, making it easier to stick to your dietary goals while enjoying a variety of tasty options that satisfy your hunger.
