I always top mine with vanilla Greek yogurt or cottage cheese for extra protein bc I like 30-40 per meal personally. I love to heat up a slice and top with almond milk or even my one of my coffee creamers. Just a splash…so good. If I’m having a hungry day I add nut butter to bc drippy peanut butter is one of my fave comfort foods. Good for a week in the fridge & freezes well too. If freezing, place each slice in a baggie and microwave or bake to thaw.

Answering Kim’s question! There’s 1g total sugar per serving (from the pumpkin and Greek yogurt)
These are hands down one of my must every month on my meal prepping. Convenient, deliciously tasteful, and I love that I don’t have to be neurotic about tracking macros when I’m eating, balanced meals!

These are a perfect healthy morning meal. I added some yogurt, sprinkled with cinnamon, a a drop of maple syrup. So good.
I feel good eating such a healthy meal at the start of my day.
