Ingredients
For the French Toast:
- 2 challah rolls – I use the low carb Eat Royo Challah Rolls. They are only 90 calories each with 8 grams of protein and 4 grams of net carbs! Use the code COOKINGKATIELADY at checkout to get 10% off your order!
- 1 egg
- 1/3 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 30g vanilla protein powder – I use Truvani. You can use the discount code KATIE10 for a discount here.
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
For the Filling:
- 1/4 cup plain, nonfat Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp organic cream cheese, softened
- 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 2/3 cup finely chopped strawberries (3-4 large)
How To Make It
- In a small blender, combine the egg, almond milk, protein powder, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Blend until smooth. Pour the mixture into a shallow dish and set aside.
- In a separate bowl, mix all the filling ingredients together. Divide the mixture evenly between the middle of the two challah rolls.
- Generously dip each stuffed roll into the egg mixture, ensuring they are thoroughly soaked. Allow the rolls to sit in the batter for a few minutes to absorb the batter.
- Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat. Cook the rolls for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. For a crispier texture, sear the edges of the rolls as well for about 20-30 seconds.
- Serve warm with your favorite organic maple syrup and enjoy!
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.
To Make This Dairy Free
You can substitute the cream cheese and Greek yogurt for your favorite dairy free alternatives to these items.
