1. PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY PROTEIN CUPS

End your last meal of the day on a high note with this classic mixture of peanut butter and jelly that’s likely been a favorite since you were a tot. These cups are a protein creation that fitness athlete Vinny Russo loves.

2. STRAWBERRY PROTEIN BARS

These bars—whipped up by protein chef Anna Sward—are perfect to bake in the summer when strawberries are in their prime. They’re especially delicious if you keep them in the fridge and enjoy them cold after a good workout. The combination of fresh strawberries and strawberry protein powder creates an absolutely sensational explosion of flavor and texture.


Note: To turn your bars up a notch, use cream instead of milk to bind your batter. Your bars will be more decadent, of course, but they’ll taste like strawberry-and-cream heaven.
