A note on this recipe
Peanut butter adds fat as well as protein, so use less on days when fat bothers your stomach. See GLP-1 constipation and what to eat on a GLP-1.
This is a recipe, not a treatment, and it won't suit everyone. If you have kidney disease, diabetes, a food allergy or a special diet, ask your prescriber or a dietitian.
