NAKED Chocolate Pea Protein Isolate from North American Farms, Only 3 Ingredients, Chocolate Vegan Protein, Gluten-Free, Soy Free, GMO Free - 2LB

I use protein powder in the following recipe to flavor vegetables.Tasty Low Sodium & Low Carbohydrate Recipe for Weight Reduction & Weight MaintenanceThis recipe uses many spices used in Persian cuisine as there is only so much you can do with low carbohydrate vegetables as far as flavor is concerned. Ancient Persia plays a tremendously fascinating role in providing thousands of years of flavoring expertise to make low carbohydrate vegetables more palatable and appealing.First, add two cups of water to a microwaveable ceramic bowl with a glass lid. Add in 4 heaping tablespoons of kosher organic fenugreek seeds along with 2 tablespoons each of kosher, organic powdered ginger as well as turmeric. Add in 1 tablespoon kosher olive oil as well as 1/2 tablespoon of kosher ground pepper. Place lid on microwaveable bowl & microwave for 4 minutes. Let sit for 1 hour until fenugreek seeds soften. Once cooled, transfer fenugreek seed flavoring sauce to a Tupperware container & refrigerate.Wash 3 pounds of organic broccoli thoroughly and inspect for bugs. Place 3 pounds of minced broccoli in an air fryer basket, spray lightly with kosher olive oil and air fry at 350 degrees for 4 1/2 minutes to 5 minutes. Allow to air cool. Once air cooled, place cooked broccoli in a plastic Tupperware container and refrigerate.If you don’t own an air fryer, simply place 3 pounds of broccoli in a large pot & add two cups water to pot. Place lid on pot and steam while stirring until broccoli is lightly cooked. Use a colander to drain water from broccoli.Wash 2 pounds of mushrooms & thoroughly inspect for bugs. Mince. Place 2 pounds of minced mushroom in an air fryer basket, spray lightly with kosher olive oil and air fry at 350 degrees for 8 minutes. Allow to air cool. Once air cooled, place mushrooms in a plastic Tupperware container and refrigerate. If you don’t own an air fryer, simply place mushrooms in large frying pan and sautee with olive oil until water has evaporated to a thick sauce.Next, peel 3 extra large rinsed & chilled avocados. Finely mince avocado flesh and place in a large Tupperware container & store in refrigerator.The last step is to use a large pot to mix all the ingredients. In a large pot, add the chilled avocados, chilled cooked broccoli, cooked, chilled mushrooms as well as turmeric & ginger seasoned fenugreek seed sauce. To the pot add 6 tablespoons ground flaxseed and 6 tablespoons of organic, kosher pea protein powder. Finally to the pot add 1/4 cup organic apple cider vinegar & 1/4 cup organic lemon juice.Stir the pot contents with a large spoon and transfer contents of pot to 4 or 5 Tupperware containers for refrigeration until ready to serve a meal.Now, for a nutritious low carbohydrate breakfast, fill a ceramic microwaveable cereal bowl with pre-prepared & flavored low carbohydrate vegetables and microwave for 4 minutes. Transfer the hot vegetable dish to a much larger bowl and stir in 3 tablespoons of kosher, organic psyllium whole husk powder for added fiber to help provide a feeling of satiety throughout the day. Once the whole husk psyllium powder is mixed into the vegetable dish, the vegetable breakfast bowl needs to be consumed within 8 to 10 minutes as psyllium very quickly absorbs water and becomes almost totally unpalatable if left to sit idle and is not eaten almost immediately after mixing in psyllium.Enjoy vegetable bowl with organic, kosher salsa and organic, kosher sauerkraut to taste. This vegetable bowl should be eaten with perhaps 1 ounce of kosher lamb or tofu for added protein as excessive eggs are known to cause diabetes & overall mortality risk.This breakfast meal works best for weight management if it is the last & only meal of the day. The added whole husk psyllium powder acts as an appetite suppressant, & the low carbohydrate vegetable meal prevents an upsurge of insulin that inhibits lipolysis. Furthermore, restricting meals to one per day further inhibits insulin which prevents lipolysis. Lipolysis means burning fat for energy in biological organisms.Note that the critical ingredient & step is adding in psyllium whole husk powder as psyllium whole husk powder creates a sensation of satiety through the entire day & allows one to skip both lunch as well as dinner as well as in-between snacks. Weight loss and weight maintenance is far too difficult without psyllium whole husk powder without the added satiety effect.Within one to four hours after breakfast, the following beverages may be consumed as they act as appetite suppressants.Beverage A: add two shots of organic espresso to 12 ounces organic almond milk & add stevia to taste. Makes a keto latte.Beverage B: Add one tablespoon organic lemon juice plus one tablespoon organic apple cider vinegar to a 16 ounce glass of water and add liquid stevia to taste. Add ice cubes to chill the drink.Beverage C: black coffeeYou should see immediate weight loss results if you’re also adding in a sufficient amount of exercise per day. Remember, no pain, no gain.I typically lose 1/3 pound per day with a 45 minute bicycle ride right after breakfast. I still get very mild hunger pains consisting of stomach grumbling around 5-7 pm, but I typically sip on apple cider & lemon juice flavored stevia sweetened water to make very minor hunger pains go away.I still have a sweet tooth to satisfy after breakfast, so I eat a few slices of stevia sweetened organic almond flour chocolate cake along with almond butter & stevia sweetened chia seed pudding for desert.Ingredients for keto low carb chocolate cake Recipe:3 eggs1 1/2 cups organic almond flour1/2 cup organic almond milk2 tablespoons psyllium whole husk powder -organic1/4 cup organic walnutsStevia to taste2 1/2 teaspoons baking powderBake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes & allow to cool in oven for 30 minutesRecipe for Keto low carb Chia seed pudding:1/2 cup organic chia seed1/2 cup organic cacao powderStevia to taste2 cups hot organic almond milkFirst heat 2 cups almond milk & then stir in other ingredients & chill in refrigerator when cooled.The key ingredient for the vegetable stir fry is psyllium whole husk fiber as psyllium greatly slows down the absorption of the meal so the meal lasts an entire 24 hours without major hunger pains even when exercise is added in.Sent from my iPhoneSent from my iPhoneSent from my iPhoneSent from my iPhone

I bought this product to try a non-milk protein to see if it helps my skin. I went with the unflavored version because I'm cheap and you get 15 more servings for the same price (it's sold by weight, so 5lb without flavorings goes further).I was worried about the flavor after reading some reviews, and I will say I agree that it's a little chalky. I mixed a serving with 10 ounces of water and it was noticeable but not overwhelming. Some people say they taste peas, I don't get that at all. The flavor is essentially neutral in my opinion-- it's boring but totally drinkable. If you're someone that needs it to taste good then flavored versions or mixing it with something would work well (although I can't speak to the flavor of those). Personally, I think people over-fixate on eliminating sugar; unless you're trying to cut to ridiculously low body fat a marginal amount of calories from a few grams of sugar isn't going to hurt you.Overall, it does as advertised and is very good value for the price. It's hard to find protein powder that has >25g protein for under a buck a serving. I initially rated this at four stars, but maybe this is as good as unflavored pea protein can be (I have no idea), so I'm rating it five.

I’ve been using Naked Pea Protein Powder for a while now, and it continues to be my go-to plant-based protein.Unlike some other plant-based proteins, this one is easy on the stomach—no bloating or digestive issues, even for those with dairy intolerance or sensitivities. The Naked Pea Protein Powder is a great option for anyone looking for a clean, plant-based protein without additives. It’s simple, effective, and perfect for those who want a high-quality, unflavored protein source. My only complaint is the gritty taste that I don't get with whey protein.

Selling points for me:1. This product contains 18 of the 20 protein amino acids needed for muscle growth which, of these, includes the 9 most essential.2. It doesn’t contain any chemical additives, which almost every other powder on the market does. I can rest easy knowing exactly what I’m consuming.Product Experience:The product dissolves more easily than advertised, taking me only 30 seconds to mix with a spoon in a cup of water (no blender/shaker bottle needed). The taste is bland, but it’s tolerable - texture wise it’s a bit heavy once it hits the back of your throat, but after a couple days I’ve already gotten used to it. I’ve also had no issues with digestion.Verdict:I would definitely recommend this if you’re looking for a fair priced healthy alternative to most of the other powders on the market.

The vanilla flavor was okay, the value for money is very good. Mixed this in shakes with fruit and greek yogurt. Mixed it with cottage cheese and oatmeal for overnite oats. have not baked with it yet, but will soon. mixes easily even in bowl with fruit and granola, although it is a little chalky that way. I liked it so much, I bought a bigger container as well as the chocolate to try that next. Enjoy!
