Nutritional values

Quinoa, almond flour, protein and yogurt provide a lot of high-quality protein that the body needs for building muscle, among other things. Blueberries score points with antioxidants, which protect the body's cells from damage by free radicals.

Feel free to use frozen blueberries instead of fresh if it is not berry season.
