I try to mix things up regularly when it comes to my diet. I tend to eat similar, if not the same, foods on a daily basis, so I like to mix in new products to complement those meals. Like… Vegan protein powders!
I use vegan, plant-based protein in smoothies, oats, banana soft serve, raw desserts, and baking.
Why?
The human body uses protein to make enzymes and hormones, and to build bones, muscles, skin, blood, and even cartilage. Eating high-quality, easily-digestible protein on a regular basis does everything from helping you maintain energy levels & manage weight to improving your workout recovery time & keeping you satiated after meals.
So rather than have the same protein powder every day, I mix in different versions and try out new brands.
Here are a few of my all time, tried and true, favorite protein powders.
- Naturade Vegansmart – Vanilla
- Vega Protein & Greens – Vanilla & Vega Sport Performance Protein – Vanilla
- Sun Warrior – Vanilla
- Tone It Up Perfect Fit – Vanilla and Vanilla Latte
- PlantFusion – Vanilla Bean
- Orgain Organic – Vanilla Bean
Clearly I’m a fan of vanilla… 🙂 I think it’s just the easiest to mix/mask in foods. What do you think?
Do YOU have a favorite protein powder? What do you use protein powders for in your daily life?
