Can I make this without protein powder?
I don’t recommend it. Protein powder adds both texture and taste to this pudding. Instead of vanilla protein powder, try chocolate or even PB2!
Can I use cottage cheese instead of Greek yogurt?
Yes, but only if you blend it super smooth before combining it with the remaining pudding ingredients. Otherwise, you’ll have lumpy pudding, and no one wants that.
