Sauces offer a great opportunity to boost the protein content of your meal by adding a little whey. Mole sauce is a wonderful mix of tomato, smoky and cocoa flavors. Take it to the next level by adding unflavored whey protein to the produce, for a fabulous boost to meat dishes or an even bigger bonus for plant-based proteins such as beans. Try Pro-Mole on a black bean burger to bring the pow and the wow!
