Description
Learn how to make a low glycemic plant-based protein bowl with wild blueberries that will keep you satiated until lunchtime. You’ll only need a bowl and a spoon!
Ingredients
- 2 heaping tbsps. ground flaxseeds
- 1 heaping tbsp. ground chia seeds
- 1 heaping tbsp. mesquite or Peruvian carob
- 1 heaping tbsp. pumpkin protein powder
- ยผ tsp. cardamom (or more)
- 150g (5.3oz) oat milk
- 140g (5oz) soy yogurt
- 100g (3.5oz) blueberries
Instructions
- Start by thawing a cup of wild blueberries. I prefer to mash them up a little to get puree like consistency.
- While the berries are thawing, in a bowl, I mix together the rest of the ingredients i.e., ground flaxseeds and chia seeds, mesquite or Peruvian carob powder, pumpkin seed protein powder, and cardamom.
- Next, add any plant milk of preference. I vary between oat and soy milk. Pour in enough for desired consistency. Also, add it gradually to be able to adjust.
- Soy yogurt will make it creamier and will add extra protein as well. Mix it all up. Add more milk if necessary.
- Finally, mix in the blueberry puree. You’ll get the most gorgeous colour imaginable!
- Topping it off with some more healthy fats. Alternating between pumpkin, sunflower, and hemp seeds.ย
Notes
Use any preferred defatted nut or seed powder/flour.
Use any unsweetened plant yogurt you like, but remember that soy and nut-based ones have more fat and protein whereas grain based contain more sugars.
By the way, soak and dehydrate pumpkin and sunflower seeds before consuming to make them easier to digest and the micronutrients more absorbable.
On another note, you could also use an immersion blender or a regular one to process all the ingredients at once.
You may also add baby spinach, parsley and micro greens to your protein bowl. Blend them with thawed blueberries and plant milk first and then add the dry ingredients along with yogurt.
