You guys, I got a speeding ticket last night on my way home from work….
Officer, please.
A lead foot is a real disease you know?
And that’s my week ya’ll. I’m almost certain the Lord is teaching me to slow down, notice the little things, and stop hurrying to the next thing so that I miss all His beauty and goodness.
Because I definitely got a parking citation less than two weeks ago and I definitely have spilt chia seed pudding and a green smoothie all over my kitchen floor this week. And last night, when I was making hot cocoa I accidentally flipped my Vitamix on [in turbo mode, obviously] without putting the lid on first.
I can’t even make this stuff up.
But I picked up Whit from the train station this morning and then we sipped lots of coffee and talked each others faces off and my heart is so happy that nothing else matters.
I love pancakes.
I love Fridays.
And I love giveaways!
The generous folks over at Plant Fusion emailed me a couple weeks ago asking if I would want to try some of their protein powders. You guys know how much I love VegaOne protein powder, it’s pretty much the only protein powder I buy and recommend. But I’m always open to trying new things so I said yes.
Made from organic sprouted quinoa, organic sprouted amaranth, pea and artichoke protein it contains a whopping 21 grams of protein per scoop and it’s vegan, soy, nut and gluten free.Their Phood line has additional superfoods and such, which I was happy to see since that’s what I love most about Vega.
And after taking a look at the ingredient list it wasn’t too shabby either. Overall, pretty clean and I could pronounce everything.
But how did it taste?
I typically use plant protein powders in my green smoothies and it tasted pretty good in that! I also have been loving it simply mixed with almond milk in the afternoons at work. I take a jar of almond milk and just shake it up with 1/2 a packet and there is zero chalky taste and no weird stevia taste which is awesome! More like adding a flavored syrup to your milk, except no wacky corn syrup of preservatives.
And the best part is Plant Fusion comes in lots of fun flavors like chocolate raspberry and cookies n’ cream. Yum!
The protein makeup is suppose to be comparable to whey protein so for those of you who like your whey protein powder I highly recommend switching to Plant Fusion. You get a higher quality protein than whey and your body can digest the plant protein much easier. Which means faster recovery from your workouts, wahoo!
The kind folks over at PlantFusion are super generous and want you to get your hands on this tasty protein powder too! They are giving away a 1 pound tub of any flavor of your choice to one lucky reader!
