Vega’s Protein Smoothie Recipes
Ya’ll know I’ve been a Vega fan for years. It was always my favourite and the most used protein in my cupboards. You also know I’m smoothie obsessed. Ridiculously so. When I was a young teenager I was a raw & vegan…so this was my protein powder and nutritional supplement of choice…but even now, while I’m not raw or vegan anymore…I still use it all the time. I like it because it’s not just a protein powder but is loaded skyhigh with enzymes, probiotics, antioxidants, and greens – all that in one little scoop!
(Sigh. Smoothie love!)
I have a ton of smoothie recipes with Vega protein here on my site, but recently with the new Vega Protein Smoothie just out…they sent me over some great recipes they created in the Vega kitchen! I’m really excited about making some of them and wanted to share the food love! All the following recipes serve 1 (or else 2 snack size servings). There’s also a yummy dip for apples which I’m looking forward to trying!
