Garden of Life Raw Protein Review !

-


I work out a lot I'm talking about seven days a week and the most important thing you need after a workout is protein and what better way to refuel than with Garden of Life Raw Protein!

What I love is that you can use protein powder in anything from smoothies, pancakes and much more!

I was ecstatic when I found out I was going to be featuring Garden of Life on my blog for review and I also got to choose what I wanted to review!


Here are the items I chose for this review and what I made with the protein powders so far!

Chocolate cacao:

I've tried many chocolate protein powders and some don't taste chocolaty and have a chalky taste to them and smell like chemicals well not this one from garden of life. It's simply amazingly delicious in many recipes whether in a post workout shake or baking. I've been seeing all of these delicious s'mores pancakes recipes spreading like wildfire on Instagram and Pinterest and I just had to make them being that s'mores are ooey gooey and full of yummy good stuff such as chocolate, marshmallows and can't forget the graham crackers. So I was on a mission and went to the store for some marshmallows since I ran out of them at home. Then the next morning I whipped up my pancake mixture which consisted of a half cup of bobs red milk organic rolled oats with 2 organic eggs, and a teaspoon of vanilla extract. I ran out of the extract of course but I did have some madhava vanilla agave syrup on hand which worked perfectly! I then blended the mixture in the blender then with a spatula carefully spooned the pancake mixture into a small bowl then tossed in some all natural chocolate chips and the marshmallows of course. Then I spooned them onto the heated pan on the stove and watched them sizzle away until it was time to eat. To top them off when I plated the pancakes I added a bit more chocolate chips and marshmallows and it was then time to dig in!  To me the pancakes made from the oats worked as a graham cracker. It was beyond delicious! It was a great start to a long day!

Marley coffee:

I added the Marley coffee protein powder to my smoothie this morning for breakfast and it gave me the extra boost I needed to start my day off right! For breakfast I had blended up a frozen organic banana, a table spoon of smooth operator peanut butter from peanut butter and company and coffee I had brewed the night before. I then tossed in the powder along with it's contents and watched patiently as the blender did it's magic!

Vanilla:

Great in a post workout smoothie with some frozen strawberries, almond milk and a bit of vanilla extract tastes like a strawberries n cream milkshake only more healthier!

Check them out on the web and see where their products are sold!

Watermelon Road Dried Fruit Jerky

It all began with Founder of Watermelon Road Fruit snacks Jamie who was like us were brought up on diets filled with prepared conscience foods and processed ingredients . When Jamie's friends had fallen ill to autoimmune diseases in their 20's it was then she knew her ways of eating had to change and she then realized that when avoiding those processed foods it had a huge impact on her husbands ankylosing spondylitis symptoms. They then made lifestyle changes in ridding the family diet of processed foods and swapped them with whole, and cleaner easy to pronounce ingredients and when Jamie became a mom she was solely oriented toward healthier ways of living by providing her family with snacks that were  packed  with nutrients and also fun to eat. During the summer months Jamie  spent her days in the garden where she created ways to add fruits and vegetables into meals and to enjoy them on the go  and that's how Watermelon Road fruit jerky began by not only fresh flav
