I found this recipe in Ilana Muhlstein, M.S., R.D.N’s new book – You Can Drop It!
Her book contains her story of losing 100 pounds. I recommend the book to you if you are interested in learning about a nutrition program that really works – The 2B Mindset. The book also has some of Ilana‘s new recipes.
