Families across America want to make sure that they’re starting the day [and year] strong, and getting enough high-quality protein in the morning is a simple way to do so. A breakfast rich in protein is a great way to energize the morning, and adding it to your family’s routine doesn’t have to be complicated. Simply add an 8-ounce glass of milk with 8 grams of natural protein plus other essential nutrients to your favorite protein breakfast foods for an easy, delicious way to add protein in the morning.

Kids already love milk and it’s a naturally nutrient-rich, wholesome food that moms can feel good about pairing with breakfast. All dairy milks, fat free, low-fat, flavored, or organic pack the same nutrient-rich punch including essential nutrients like calcium, vitamin D, potassium, and so much more.

In honor of this, milk life Lo Que Nos Hace Fuertes will be sharing a few exclusive step-by-step recipe videos with some delicious, fun, and simple ways to include milk in both moms’ and kids’ diets prepared by Chef LaLa on www.FuertesconLeche.com. The recipes include some traditional breakfast foods high in protein, while also incorporating a delicious chicken with a Latin twist, and an old time favorite soup she prepares with her son. All the recipes include LaLa’s personal flair and nutritional insights her fans admire so much. LaLa also opens up about her personal story and shares touching moments with her family and son, Maddox.

“Milk has always been a part of my life, and my sons, so you can imagine the excitement I felt when I was asked to be a part of the milk life Lo Que Nos Hace Fuertes campaign for 2017. I have beautiful childhood memories of the milk man delivering fresh milk to our home on a daily basis. As a nutritionist, I think it’s important to educate my son on the importance of nourishing himself with the right things. I know if Maddox and I start our day with a protein-rich breakfast with milk, it helps us stay focused and have the energy we need to perform our daily tasks,” says Chef LaLa. “Consuming protein is essential in a balanced diet, it helps with muscles, bones, teeth and even your hair. Milk is a super food which is why it has been a part of families and generations after generations.”
