I am a HUGE Vega fan. Ever since I started running longer distances, I have sworn by the Vega PreWorkout Energizer. It puts that little extra pep in my step. It is made with all natural plant based ingredients so you can feel good about the ingredients going in your body. So when I heard about Vega One, I flipped!
Just one scoop of Vega One gives you all this:
It maybe the world's perfect food. When the super awesome people at Vega wanted to send me some Vega One to try as part of their #BestLifeProject, I immediately chose the Vanilla and the Vanilla Chai flavors.
Yes folks, that is the coveted Vega shaker bottle! I had to try it out right away. The French Vanilla has the best vanilla flavor to it. But I will admit, there are two things and only two things I don't like. One is that the smoothie or drink mix turns out this weird blue green color. You may want to add some berries or some additional greens to disguise the thing. Two because it is made out of pea protein the texture is not as smooth as other protein powders. What I really wanted to try though was the Vanilla Chai. Who doesn't love a good solid chai?
Excuse the wrinkled package. Don't even ask! I created a Raspberry Chai smoothie recipe for you and it is DELICIOUS!!!
Raspberry Chai Smoothie
3-5 cubes ice
1 scoop of Vanilla Chai Vega One
1 cup unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
1 medium banana
1 package Raspberry Emergen-C
1/2 cup - 1 cup greens
Blend together and enjoy!
This, my friends, is a GOOD smoothie! In fact, I think I will have it again tomorrow!
The super awesome people at Vega were kind enough to let me giveaway a 10-pack of singles serving Vega One in the flavor of your choice and that shaker bottle. Heck yes! So what flavor would you pick? I think I like the French Vanilla more than the chai because it is so versatile but the chai is so yum too! This is a part of every single breakfast for me!

ReplyDeleteChocolate!
ReplyDeleteI've never tried any of Vega products so I'm not sure what flavor would be my favorite. I love chocolate so I would want to try their chocolate flavor. Vanilla Chai sounds delicious too!
ReplyDeleteI would pick the Vanilla Chai - I'm a sucker for anything Vanilla. My typical breakfast during the work week is a drink made with Vega Protein Smoothie (Viva Vanilla or Tropical Tango) and I add ice, banana and 2 cups on spinach. I'll typically have that with eggs and toast or a Greek yogurt or oatmeal. I really love Vega products, especially the recovery accelerator - it's an absolute life saver.
ReplyDeleteI have some vega lemon, and I love the idea of adding an Emergen C packet to it, such a great idea! I've only ever tried the lemon-lime flavor but I do like it!
ReplyDeleteI make a homemade chai tea that I like so I'd like to try Vanilla Chai. I like smoothies - had a cocoa PB banana smoothie today!
ReplyDeleteFrench vanilla sounds yummy
ReplyDeleteVanilla, because you can add anything to it and it'll still taste pretty good.
ReplyDeleteI love Vega and have their Chocolate protein powder at home right now. I've found that Whey protein powders make my stomach upset, so this is a great alternative for me!

ReplyDeleteI love the Vanilla Chai flavor
ReplyDeleteI would love to try the Vanilla Chai as well. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI love the vanilla chai! It's my fav!
ReplyDeleteI think I'd have to go with French Vanilla. I am a fan of pea protein, but as you said, it can be kind of gritty/chalky. As much as I like chai, I'm a bit scared to try it in a pea protein lol. I do like to walk on the wild side, though, so I'd definitely be willing to try it! As far as what I have for breakfast: I'm not fond of doing shakes/smoothies for breakfast unless I'm in a major hurry, I need whole food first thing in the morning. My favorite quick breakfast is a 2 egg sandwich on toasted Ezekiel bread with PB2 on top. Sounds weird, but it's delicious!
