This protein pudding recipe is crazy easy and so good! Y’all know that I prefer to keep most recipes whole and unprocessed. However, sometimes you just want a simple, yet guilt-free, sweet treat. When you’re trying to stay lean, a cupcake isn’t the best choice…(insert sad face). I do believe in an occasional indulgence, life’s too short for restrictive dieting, this girl likes to eat!

Hi Amee,
I only see 5OZ or 3.4OZ boxes for pudding at the store. Are we only supposed to use 1.5OZ of the pudding powder?
Hi Mark! If you look at the bottom right corner of a Jell-O brand pudding box (what I have in my pantry at the moment) you’ll see that it says NET WT 1.5 oz (42g). That’s the size box you need. It’s the large box for the Jell-O brand. Hope that helps!
Yup, I’m all about this, looks so good — I’ve made almost the same exact thing before with the SF pudding mix #bhahahah — it DOES take care of the cravings!
Great minds think alike! 😉 Thanks for stopping by Jennifer!
