Organic Plant Protein Smooth Vanilla Review

in Family and Home on 06/29/15

Garden of Life’s Organic Plant Protein Smooth Vanilla Review

Since making the decision to pursue a more active, healthier lifestyle, I’ve struggled with finding products that I not only enjoy but that I can also swear by. With so many gimmicks, false claims and empty promises made by manufacturers and companies these days, it seems like you can never be too careful with who you hand your money over to or who you can trust with your health. I’ve tried a wide variety of new products over the last year or so who made big claims to get my money but in the end turned out to be duds. However Garden of Life’s products never seem to disappoint me.

As a company whose commitment to health goes beyond beyond just offering effective nutritional products, Garden of Life has taken a strong interest in in building relationships with people in order to help them transform their lives and achieve their goals of extraordinary health. Garden of Life combines nature and science to bring their customers a brand that has extended a hand in helping walk the path to healthy living with the best quality products that are supported by education as well as by innovation.

At Garden of Life, not only do they commit themselves and their work to helping people achieve their health goals with the best products but they’re also one of the few who have attained dual certificates proving that their products are USDA Certified Organic AND Non-GMO verified. Not only have they gone above and beyond to bring you the best, unaltered, organic products but Garden of Life also makes it their mission to ensure that their products have only the highest quality ingredients and that each one goes through a rigorous testing process to make sure that the products are top quality. Now, how many companies do you know that actively go through such a process for their customers?

For my review I was sent the Organic Plant Protein Smooth Vanilla protein powder to try.

The Organic Plant Protein Smooth Vanilla protein Powder is my new favorite way to start the day. This traditionally flavored powder is vegan certified, kosher and a great source for all of your protein needs for the day. It’s also gluten-free, grain-free and easy on the digestive tract.

The Organic Plant Protein powder comes in three varieties Smooth Vanilla, Smooth Energy and Marley Coffee. I’ll be sharing my review on the other two very soon!

OPP All

One of my favorite things about this stuff, aside from it being organic, is that it’s easy to prepare and the texture is smooth. My morning routine consists of loading the protein powder into the blender, letting it run through for a minute or two and then pouring it into my favorite cup for some leisurely enjoyment. When I’m really in a rush, I just thrown the Organic Plant Protein powder in my shaker bottle with some water and mix it up on the way. This one mixes very nicely in a shaker bottle, I would say it’s their smoothest one and you can get away without using a blender if you don’t have time or don’t want to.

I like the taste of the Smooth Vanilla whether I mix it with some fruits and greens or by itself. It doesn’t have a gritty taste by itself at all and it lives up to the “smooth” in its name. I do think that when I drink it plain that I can taste a very slight taste of the peas, which I don’t mind but it’s so slight and then the next sip I taste vanilla.

Whether you like using your own shaker bottle or running it through the blender like I do, you simply can’t go wrong when adding this rich powder to your health regime.

I’m Michelle aka Powered by Mom. I’m married with one daughter, my hubby was my high school sweetheart, our two dogs Nyx and Cleo and our cat Oliver. As you can see we’re a family of animal lovers. We love to travel when we can, try different food and activities all over the world and enjoy being together. My passions are writing, travelling, creating new recipes, encouraging people to adopt not shop and just to enjoy life while we can.

As an animal lover I also volunteer with a rescue organization called Three Little Pitties All Breed Rescue. I'm part of the cat program Three Little Kitties Saving Kitties which tries to save as many cats as possible in Houston, Texas which has a huge overpopulation fo cats and they euthanize far too many cats (and dogs) we want to change that.

    The Garden of Life Organic Plant Protein powder sounds like a great product, I would love to try it. I will have to see for myself if it is gritty or not. Thank you for sharing this review.

Oh yes it's getting to be that time of the year wh Oh yes it's getting to be that time of the year where we'll start spending more time outside enjoying the weather, grilling and the longer days of light and so much more. ☀️⛱ SponsoredI may have gotten a head start as we went camping for the first time this year and this really reminded me of how I love to sit outside and enjoy a good campfire or one in our firepit in our backyard and enjoying the quiet of the evening and stars twinkling in the night sky. 🌠⭐It also brings up memories of good food, grilled food my favourite kind with all those fun and delicious marinades, rubs and sauces to dress up and enhance the flavour of your food.

Happy #Easter everyone. Hubby & I went camping and Happy #Easter everyone. Hubby & I went camping and just got back. We took both of our dogs with us and we think we broke them 😆 #CleoTheDog & #NyxTheDog were both soooo tired by around 8:30pm each night that they would go to our trailer door & look at ys waiting to be let in 😁 while we continued to enjoy our campfire 🔥It was great to unplug there is no cell service let alone internet where we go so we enjoyed the beautiful scenery. We are lucky to live in #BeautifulBC. Swipe to see our 📷  more beautiful nature photos to come soon. 🌿🌼#camping #PNW #nature #naturephotography #pnwwonderland #pnwlife #forest #greatoutdoors #campfire #Chilliwack  #chilliwackbc  #FraserValley
