My inspiration for this recipe is ravenous hunger after coming home from an intense CrossFit-style workout. Most of the time, only thing my body wants after such physical and mental exertion is something carb-y, protein-y, and pleasantly sweet. Other times, I just go for a protein shake or a smoothie.
