Notes
You can find ube powder online or in Asian grocery stores. If you have ube purée at home, then you can also replace the powder with 50–60 g of it.
The Greek yogurt or protein powder is what makes it truly filling, so don't skip it if you want to stay full until noon.
It also keeps in the fridge for 2 days, so you can even prepare two servings at once.
