Some other great ideas for increasing protein consumption using Food Products:

When using True Protein's Gemma Protein Isolate Powder as a Base, add two extra eggs and one full cup of pea powder to the recipe ingredients.

When making pancakes using Pancake or Waffle Mix or your own recipe, add an extra egg, ¼ cup more milk substitute, and 1 to 1 ½ cups water along with one cup of Gemma Powder. THESE ARE GREAT PROTEIN ENRICHED PANCAKES!

Add Gemma powder to most soups to thicken and enrich with protein.

Incorporate pea powder in casseroles.

Use your imagination and experiment!
