I'm not usually into those supped up juices, protein bars, etc., even though a lot of people think it's the only way for vegetarians to get all the daily protein they need. I think as a culture we are way too obsessed with protein, and I have happily--and healthfully--lived and cooked using very few of these faux proteins for the last 17 years.
That said, a friend recommended the new chocolate flavor of the Odwalla Super Protein drinks to me the other day, and I decided to give one a try. It rocked!!! Seriously, it's like a chocolate milkshake that's healthy! What's not to like about that?!

You just took the words right out of my mouth with this post! It drives me up the wall how many times I am asked if I get enough protein/how I get protein if I don't eat meat! I switched primary care physicians once because he would not stop lecturing me on protein/B-12 related issues (I had no deficiency or anything).
ReplyDeleteI cannot wait to try the Odwalla chocolate drink! I love their other smoothies, and I am obsessed with chocolate, so it sounds like a winner!
ooh I will have to try this I love the odwalla drinks. Thanks for the tip!

oh, how I do love this little drink! It does make me a little burpy, usually because I can't chug it down fast enough *yum*
ReplyDeleteI'm totally going to have to try this! Thanks for the recommendation!
