Help me understand the hype. Did I order wrong? I ordered the mild. Wish the fries were hand cut and salty. They were so dry.

If you’re trying to hit your protein goals, save this Ninja Creami recipe. Ninja Kitchen Bare Performance Nutrition

My husband makes this one on repeat — creamy, and packed with 50 grams of protein! It’s such an easy way to turn a few simple ingredients into a high-protein treat that actually feels like dessert.

Save this one for your next Ninja Creami! 🤍
