Disclaimer: I received a free canister of the protein superfood powder through my relationship with FitApproach, but all opinions are my own. I always keep it real!
I like to add protein powder to my morning green drinks to help keep me fuller longer. I start work around 7:15 and I usually have my green drink at that time. If I follow this up with fruit and yogurt around 9:30, I find that will hold me over until lunch. That being said, I always like to try out plant based protein powders.
“Amazing Grass Amazing Grass greens are USDA organic, Non GMO, kosher pareve, vegan and gluten free. Containing a plethora of vitamins, minerals, plant based protein and phyto-chemicals, leafy greens assist the body in maintaining healthy organ function, detoxification and immunity.”
I was pretty much sold after reading that description. I’m all about products that use REAL organic ingredients that I can pronounce.
Earlier this month I received an awesome package from Amazing Grass! Look at all these goodies:
I was lucky enough to try the Vanilla Protein Superfood Powder.
I wouldn’t say that the protein powder tasted like vanilla, but it it was still very tasty! It also mixed well with my other ingredients (fruits, ice, chia seeds and spinach). I was very impressed.
