Variations

1. You can use any flavor of Hi-Tech Precision Protein you like. I chose the Strawberry Ice Cream flavor to complement the fresh strawberries.
2. You can add in more fruit, or replace the strawberries with your own favorite fruit. 
3. Feel free to use more (or less) granola. You can also use a different kind of granola but be aware of the changes that will make to your macronutrient totals.
4. This is a fairly low carb Protein Parfait. You can add carbs by using regular granola as noted above. Or, you can add a banana. I would suggest doing that if you’re currently on a lean bulk, or if you want to use this as a post-workout meal.
5. If you’re trying to stay lean, I would suggest leaving the recipe as is. 

Supplement Suggestions

Your supplement program should fit with your nutritional program because supplements support your nutrition. In other words, choose real food first, then use supplements as exactly that – a “supplement” to your eating plan. In the case of this decadent Protein Parfait recipe, you’re already using an exceptional protein powder. Hi-Tech Precision Protein is one of the few proteins on the market that directly targets protein synthesis. It does that by releasing leucine, the most anabolic amino acid, in the initial stages of protein synthesis. 

Don’t forget about your other foundational supplements, which should include a pre-workout, such as NutraBio Base, a “Core” Pre with a streamlined yet effective formula at a value price. 

Your stack should also include creatine, such as AllMax Nutrition Creatine Monohydrate, and a multi, such as Beverly International Super Pack, a well-dosed, complete multi-vitamin formula.
