Zero Sugar Cheesecake Pudding with Protein Drink and Sugar-Free Jam
Ingredients:
- 1 package (1 oz) of sugar-free cheesecake pudding mix – 3 points (for the whole package)
- 2 cups of your favorite protein drink (such as Premier Protein) – 2 points (for 2 cups, depending on the brand)
- 2 tablespoons sugar-free jam (flavor of your choice) – 0 points
Total points: 5 points for the entire dessert
Points per serving (assuming 4 servings): 1 point per serving
Instructions:
- Prepare the pudding:
- Whisk the sugar-free cheesecake pudding mix with 2 cups of your protein drink until smooth. Let it set in the fridge for about 5 minutes to thicken.
- Add the topping:
- Once the pudding has set, divide it into 4 serving dishes or bowls. Add 1/2 tablespoon of sugar-free jam on top of each serving for a fruity finish.
- Chill and serve:
- You can enjoy it immediately or let it chill for a bit longer to get a thicker, more pudding-like consistency.
