Cheesecake is one of my absolute favorite desserts. I'm sure a lot of you can say the same too.
But, when you have health and fitness goals ... Cheesecake doesn't come around often. Or at least, it shouldn't come around often!
That's why I knew I needed to make a high-protein recipe to keep my cheesecake cravings in check. The result was a recipe that I know you'll love too.
Give this high-protein blueberry cheesecake a try and let me know what you think!
