Indulge in the cozy warmth of a Pecan Pie Warm Protein Bowl—a delightful fusion of comfort and nutrition. Begin with 1 to 1 1/2 cups of frozen riced cauliflower, providing a nutritious and low-carb base for your bowl.

Next, add 2 tablespoons of chopped pecans, offering a rich and nutty flavor reminiscent of pecan pie. Drizzle 1/4 cup of your preferred milk (unsweetened almond, in this case) to create a luscious consistency. To elevate the warmth, incorporate 1/4 teaspoon of pink salt, enhancing the overall flavor profile. Infuse the bowl with a comforting aroma by adding 1/2 teaspoon each of cinnamon and vanilla or maple extract.

Boost the protein content by incorporating 1 serving of vanilla or salted caramel protein powder and a scoop of collagen, ensuring a wholesome and satisfying experience. Finally, include 1 to 2 tablespoons of ground flaxseed or psyllium husk for added fiber and nutrients.
