# Tips from the Pros:

01 -
  • You wake up to a restaurant quality breakfast without lifting a finger
  • The protein keeps you full for hours without that mid morning crash
02 -
  • I learned the hard way that metal lids can rust in the fridge, so use plastic lids or cover with plastic wrap
  • The texture continues to develop over 24 hours, so these actually taste even better on day two
03 -
  • Toast your pistachios in a dry pan for 2-3 minutes beforehand to deepen their flavor
  • Use wide mouth jars for easier stirring and cleaning in the morning
