I'm a formula kind-of gal. To me, formulas are like boundaries and rules. They offer safety, consistency and predictability. But the real fun is when you start breaking them and creating your own. The formula here for our breakfast shake lays a great foundation to start creating your own breakfast recipes. It builds on the basic ingredients to form a meal replacement, but allows you the freedom to experiment. Start with some of our recipes below to see what kind of combinations you like!
