Vegetarian Protein Powder Recipes
Vegetarian athletes face a unique challenge: meeting their body's protein needs on a restricted diet. Of course, there are plenty of protein-rich plants (and we're going to assume that vegetarians here are comfortable with eggs) but the full-fledged omnivores out there get to enjoy the convenience of protein powders for snacks and quick meals. Fortunately, there are tons of high-quality vegetarian protein powders available – including pea protein. To get you started, here are a few simple recipes.
Basic Protein Pancake
You can add all sorts of seasonings and toppings to these pancakes once you've got the protein-rich base down. Because vegetable protein powders absorb liquids, you may need to adjust the measurements to achieve the needed consistency depending on your powder of choice.
- 1/3 cup rolled oats
- 1 scoop Naked Pea protein powder
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1 egg
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1 banana, mashed
- 1 cup apple sauce (sweetened or unsweetened)
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 2/3 cup milk
- 1 scoop Naked Pea protein powder
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 cup water
- 1 scoop Naked Pea protein powder
