According to a study done by Heather Leidy, “eating a breakfast rich in protein significantly improves appetite control and reduces unhealthy snacking on high-fat or high-sugar foods in the evening”.1  

In her study, the participants consumed a breakfast that had 35 grams of protein. This simple, quick, and easy recipe is loaded with 40 grams of premium protein so you can fight the protein pancakes - syngexunhealthy urge in the evening!

You will need:

  • 4 egg whites
