This protein Greek Yogurt Chocolate Cake is so incredibly moist and fluffy, and made with simple, clean ingredients! Each slice is only 135 calories with 9 grams of protein can you believe it?! I found the BEST healthy chocolate frosting by Simply Delish. It is sugar free, and all you have to do is mix a packet with some milk and you have perfect frosting every time! You can use the code KATIE10 at checkout fr a discount as well!

Why Is Consuming Protein Important?
- Protein is nutrient-rich, so it helps you stay fuller longer. You are more likely to eat less when you have high protein meals because you won’t have the munchies!
- It boosts your metabolism & increases fat burning.
- It increases muscles & strength. If you are lifting weights and not eating enough protein, you aren’t going to see much of a difference!
- It lowers your blood pressure.
