Protein is so important especially in the morning for energy and even more so after a workout for recovery! You must know by now that overnight breakfasts are the JAM - I am on a roll with the overnight bowls and decided to throw a scoop of my FAVORITE protein powder, which happens to be vanilla, to have the best of both worlds. Plus, since this is a quinoa bowl... quinoa already has protein. Double the fun :)
