I was just coming on to post this question. I’m having this for dinner and wondering too. Are we supposed to be eating 1/2 a vegetable here or 1/2 a fat I’m guessing it supposed to be a vegetable since there is a fat right above it with the hummus but would love clarification.
I just spent forever doing a ton of math to try to fit the protein balls in Greek yogurt into phase 2. I am on women’s meal plan three. This is as close as I can get so I hope it helps someone out there.
The only modification I made to the protein balls was to switch from 1/2 cup peanut butter 0.44 cups peanut butter. The remainder of the protein ball recipe remains the same. I got 221 cal, 13.5 g of fat, 17 carbs and 10 g of protein
Then I add 1.5 cups of 0% Fage Greek yogurt which is 135 cal, 27 g of protein, zero fat and 7.5 carbs
Totaled this equals 356 cal, 37 g of protein, 13.5 g of fat and 24.5 g of carbs
If I then add 1/4 cup blueberries that is 5.5 carbs and 21 cal so my total is 377 cal, 30 g of carbs, 37 g of protein and 13.5 g of fat.
The target for this meal plan is 368 cal, 29 g of carbs, 36 g of protein and 12 g of fat.
So I am only off by 9 cal, 1 g of carbs, 1 g of protein and 1.5 g of fat. I am going to call that a win for me!

I made it for the first time just now and it was absolutely fantastic. I used Nicole‘s protein powder and follow the recipe to a T. I did let the batter sit for 2 to 3 minutes like the recipe says. Personally I did not change anything about it and it was probably the best protein waffle I’ve ever had! So there is hope!! Lol.
