Energy Boosters

On mornings when I just don't have the time to make breakfast or I know that I have a long day at work I will make myself a protein smoothie or a Maca powder shake. I'll be honest, I was quite skeptical about the whole Maca thing but from working at Sprouts I was able to sample a lot of different brands and the Essential Living was my favorite. I liked their brand so much I ended up buying their Coco Gogo Energy Elixir, Wild Protein (not in the photo), and Superfood Smoothie Mix. I've mention it before but Garden of Life is my absolute favorite when it comes to protein powders and the Raw Proteins & Greens is so great because it gives you your full serving of vegetables and other greens that you need all in one. Another protein powder by the I like is them Raw Fit for weight loss. (I threw the container away before I remembered I wanted to take a picture). It was actually the first protein power I bought when I started working out and it made me fall in love with the brand.

I'm not going to give you a full recipe for my protein smoothie but you can read my other post about my favorite smoothie and then just throw the powder in with it. But there is two ways I do it, I either use the Raw Protein & Greens for the all in one or I use the Raw Fit and the Superfood Smoothie Mix so that I still am getting some of my vegetables in. Switching it up every now and then is a good way to make your powders last longer and to make sure you don't get bored of the same tasting thing everyday.

For the Maca shake I used to just use the Maca powder and almond milk but sometimes I'l how in a scoop of the Coco Gogo Energy Elixir to make it a little chocolatey and give it some more kick!

Now these are a little pricey, once again I lucked out and got some of these as free samples from the vendors but there are plenty of cheaper and just as good substitutes for these broads that won't kill your wallet. But like I said before you do get what you pay for and these are pretty incredible. If you had to pink one I would go with the Garden of Life Protein & Greens because you can get much more out of it and that's what I'm here to help you do!
