1 minute

SERVES:

1

INGREDIENTS:

Pea or oat milk

Peanut butter (2 thumbs)

Chia seeds (1 thumb)

Flax seeds (1 thumb)

Oats (1 fist)

Banana (1)

Protein powder (chocolate or vanilla) (one serving)

DIRECTIONS:

  1. The protein powder is an easy and highly accessible way to immediately get a good hit of protein in at the start of the day. Oats are prebiotic, are a source of fibre and have a good amount of protein. Pea milk has a nutritional profile very similar to cows milk and a much higher protein content than most vegetable milks. Seeds are rich in minerals, omega3 fats (especially flax) and minerals which can be useful to lower inflammation and balance blood lipids.
