5 Best Plant Based Protein Shakes

Protein shakes are a great meal replacement option if you're on a vegan diet.  We have pulled together five of the best plant based protein shakes that we have tried and tested. Each is packed full of protein, taste delicious and they are really filling, which means that, if you're trying to cut down on your calorie intake these can help you feeling full for longer.

Each of our shakes involves the use of a blender. Our favourite is the Ninja Blender because it is well-priced and it's blades and speed ensure that ice is properly crushed and you're never left chewing small bits of fruit - which can often happen with cheaper blenders!

Instructions 

All you need to do is combine all of the ingredients in a blender and blitz them up until they’re all mixed together.  I like to add the ice cubes after blending, but you can add them to the blender if you want to.

Just like the last shake, all you have to do is blend everything together until smooth.  You can also add more or less cinnamon, depending on your taste and add crushed nuts according to your taste. 

Iced Coffee Protein Shake/Frapuccino

Coffee Protein Shake Frapuccino

Ingredients

You will need:

Instructions 

Simply wait for the coffee to cool slightly and mix together all of the ingredients either in a blender or a shaker.  Again, I like to add the ice afterwards, but if you add ice to the blender the shake will be thicker.

 

 

Blueberry Protein Shake Smoothie

Ingredients

You will need:

Instructions 

Simply blend together all of the ingredients until mixed.  The coconut water in this shake makes it great to drink post-workout, because coconut water is full of electrolytes, such as potassium, which you lose a ton of when you sweat – this can help prevent muscle cramps.

 

Raspberry and Coconut Protein Smoothie
