Adore: Amazing Meal Chocolate Infusion


I think we all know how much I love my smoothies and juices in the morning.  However, I just found the perfect protein/energy/grass/100% magic powder to marry my smoothies.  It is called Amazing Meal Chocolate Infusion by Amazing Grass.  Oh-my-gawd, it is yummy and ridiculously healthy.  I have tried other protein powders but really there is no comparison.  I like Vega, but I was getting a little tired of the Natural flavor.  Vega is pretty sweet because it is made by a vegan and professional Ironman Triathlete.  I really love the nutrients in Vega but really, it made whatever I made taste like grass.  I possibly need to try another flavor.  In the meantime, I am over the moon about Amazing Meal. 

Why Amazing Meal is wicked awesome:


  • Organic, raw, vegan, gluten free, soy free, and dairy free.

  • One scoop has 10 grams of protein containing all essential amino acids

  • Rich in antioxidant and phytonutrients. 

  • It has chlorophyll rich organic wheat grass, barley grass, alfalfa, and kale.

  • Organic super fruit- acai and goji berries

  • Has 6 grams of fiber to keep things running smooth, balance blood sugar, and improve digestion

  • It has a healthy dose of digestive enzymes and probiotics to help support digestion

  • 100% whole nutrition, no fillers or isolated vitamins

Here's the deal, if you aren't used to protein powder (especially the ones that aren't filled with sugar) then it can taste a bit earthy at first.  You quickly get used to the taste and compared to the Vega Natural Flavor, the Amazing Meal Chocolate Infusion is de-lish! 

Amazing Grass is the brand and they have lots of products to keep you healthy and on top of your A- game.  I have only tried this.  Now don't be confused with the other Amazing Grass Chocolate products, I have only used the Amazing MEAL.

Today I woke up a bit groggy from surgery yesterday and this drink was flirting with my mind. 

Amazing Meal Chocolate Banana Smoothie

 

1  1/2 frozen bananas

 

1 hand full of organic spinach

 

3/4 cups of Almond Milk (I used Vanilla unsweetened) use enough for the consistency you like

 

1 scoop of Amazing Meal Chocolate Infusion powder

  

Then with the trusty Vita-Mix, blend the ingredients.

 

 

I sprinkled some Chia seeds on top of my smoothie.

 

 



"You are what a sunrise and sunset are about,

 

You are what a SMILE AND HUG ARE,

 

When you walk in a room, no one else is there.

 

 Your smile and laugh can melt a heart."

On a side note, I am sad to report that our Napa date trip has to be postponed.  I had surgery yesterday and apparently I won't be fully recovered for swimming and a massage.  We are going to wait until I can fully enjoy my time with my only worries being; do I have the Chardonnay or Pinot Grigio, do I get the hot stone or the aromotherapy massage, or should I finish reading The China Study or People magazine?  Those are the things I want to "worry" about. 

Nonetheless, my birthday will rock no matter where we are.  We are hoping to go to San Fran for the night.  I know my honey will plan something special :)
