Protein Powder Note

This recipe uses Naked Nutrition Vanilla Naked Whey Isolate. It blends smoothly into cottage cheese without a chalky or gritty texture and keeps the flavor clean and simple. The ingredient list is minimal with no artificial sweeteners, gums or fillers, which makes it easy to use in recipes like parfaits, overnight oats and protein desserts where texture really matters.
