I always end up having leftover rice when making dinner and this is a great way of using it up, using two other ingredients, chocolate and your favourite protein powder. And I know what you’re going to ask… can you not taste the rice. Not at all. It’s super smooth and tastes great. For another great high protein snack, check out these batch prep energy balls.

Method

Step 1

Start by melting dark chocolate. Personally, I use hot water and melt over the hob for a few minutes, but you can use the microwave too.

Step 2

In a blender, add your cooked rice, hot water, melted chocolate and your protein powder. Blend until it’s nice and smooth.

Step 3

Pour the mixture into a bowl and pop it into the fridge it for a couple of hours, or until it sets.

Step 4

When serving, dust with some chocoa powder and enjoy. It’s sooo good.

Ingredients

200g (7 oz) dark chocolate, melted
200g (1 cup) boiled rice
120ml (1/2 cup) hot water
1-2 tbsp protein powder

Cocoa powder, for dusting (optional)
