Notes

We absolutely love Puori PW1 whey protein powder for its ultimate quality, clean ingredient list, and flavor. Puori whey protein is made from protein concentrate harvested from pasture-raised cows and flavored with real bourbon vanilla. Puori PW1 Vanilla is 3rd party tested and recently ranked #1 in Clean Label Project’s test of 133 protein powder products from 52 brands. Use code PUORIxRFD for 20% off your order (we also love and use other Puori supplements, including their omega 3s, vitamin D, magnesium, and collagen peptides.)

*If you don’t have pumpkin pie spice, you can make your own. To do so, mix 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground ginger, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, ¼ teaspoon ground allspice, and a pinch of ground cloves.
