Notes

Pulled from Michael Kory (@michaelkory) on TikTok. Amounts, order, and macros are the ones in the caption. The clip is a paid partnership with Legion; the scoop in the video is Legion vanilla whey. Any vanilla whey at 30 g works.

The pudding mix is dry sugar-free instant banana pudding, 2 tablespoons (15 g), not a whole box. Do not cook it.

The caption does not give a freezer time. Check at 15 minutes. You want it cold and thicker, not a frozen block.
