It’s here! Shaklee has come up with a new product that I’ve been itching for for a while! I’m very much into superfood powders whether we’re talking about spirulina, chlorella, maca, lucuma, the list goes on. I’m so excited about their new product – the Organic Greens Booster! It’s a combination of kale, spinach and broccoli in a powdered form which makes it extremely convenient to add greens to anything you can think of! I’ve had to test a few recipes out to see what tasted too “green” (I will never become a person who’s able to drink a purely veggie juice), but I’m definitely not complaining!
Strawberry Protein Kefir
I remember when I was a child, my mom would often buy a few bottles of strawberry or mango kefir, and it would be gone within a few days. There was something about that creamy yogurt drink that was almost addicting! I’m a huge fan of fruit to begin with, so that immensely helped. Imagine my distress though, when I found out I couldn’t have it because of my dairy-intolerance! I had to miss out on so many of my favourite foods, but today I figured out a smoothie that tastes pretty close to it, consistency-wise, and depending on what kind of yogurt you use can taste extremely similar. (The more tart your dairy-free yogurt, the more similar it is to kefir). Since I have a gigantic sweet tooth though, I tend to deviate to less tart yogurts. Without further ado…here’s the recipe!
