Sunwarrior’s Raw Vegan Protein Powders

After hard workout or run, there is something so amazing about a smoothie.  Even more amazing when it’s loaded with protein, fiber, real ingredients and nutrients to fuel you back up.

I got the chance to try out Sunwarrior’s Raw Vegan proteins and I loved them.  In my blender, I combined Organic almond milk, frozen bananas, Chia seeds, coconut, spinach, and these raw, vegan, sprouted proteins.

Sunwarrior has all sorts of plant-based products to add to your drinks– protein, Ormus Greens, Sprouted Barley… I can’t wait to try them all!

On taste– I liked the chocolate over the vanilla (although the chocolate mixed with spinach yields an odd color).  Thankfully, they were not very sweet and most sweetness came from the bananas.  I have had some protein powders that were so artificially sweet, it was nauseating.  But Sunwarrior’s mix is spot on.

I made these into smoothie bowls because I like eat my smoothies, instead of drink them.  It is a psychological thing– I get more satisfaction and satiation when I eat my smoothie rather than when I drink them.  Anyone else?

Meanwhile– these proteins are SPROUTED, RAW, VEGAN, NON-GMO, and GLUTEN FREE.  Yeah, sign me up.

Side note, photographing these bad boyz is no easy task.  The smoothie bowls I see on Instagram are filled with beautiful fruit and colored toppings, floating easily atop the bowl.

It’s a lie, it’s gotta be a lie.

I placed my sliced bananas on top and those little turds just SANK! It was like watching the Titanic.  I was yelling at the bananas to stay afloat as I scrambled to get my camera as fast I could.

How many bananas do you see in the picture below?  One and a half? Maybe a few peekers?  Yeah… there are about 10 slices that were very camera-shy (or passed out and sank)

Place those blueberries on top?  Nope, they need floaties. Look at this one barely afloat!

I mean, come on.  It’s a lie, I swear.

Anyway, my photographs were taken mighty quickly after setting the toppings– and some not quick enough, but ya get what ya get.
