There are many other variations to this recipe. There are also a ton of other dessert recipes using Shakeology. Next time you are craving chocolate or something sweet take a few minutes to whip up a dessert that is full of super foods and healthy ingredients!
Here are some of the highlights of Chocolate Vegan Shakeology:
• Plant based. As you know, the new formula is 100% plant-based and the health benefits of a plant-based lifestyle are well documented — from lower cholesterol and lower risk for heart disease, cancer, and diabetes – to easier weight management and fewer digestive issues.
No animals allowed. Give your system a break from heavy animal proteins by replacing one meal a day with Chocolate Vegan Shakeology®. There are also theories that eating meat which arrived on your plate through the brutal process of factory farming can contribute to added stress. Plant-based foods can help calm the body from the inside out.
• Superfoods! Chocolate Vegan includes 5 new superfoods: moringa, coconut flower nectar, luo han guo, Himalayan salt, and konjac root. All key nutrients come from natural whole foods. There are no added vitamin or mineral isolates and no fortification. Moringa is called the “Tree of Life,” because it is one of nature’s most nutritious foods. It contains 90 nutrients and 46 antioxidants along with ALL of the essential amino acids. Plus, according to some studies, moringa can help boost energy, lead to faster recovery, and balance out blood sugar levels.
• All natural chocolate. The way nature intended. Ever wonder what cacao tastes like right out of the pod from the cacao tree? It’s rich, earthy chocolate taste is derived solely from whole-food ingredients with no additional flavoring agents.
• Freedom. Chocolate Vegan is lactose and dairy free. If you’re lactose intolerant or have trouble digesting whey protein, then this is the shake for you. Most people have trouble digesting dairy, whey protein, or animal proteins and don’t even know it—until they try a plant-based protein meal and can immediately feel a difference.
• Sugar is the devil and Fructose is a thing of the past. Chocolate Vegan is made with coconut flower nectar and luo han duo — two whole-food superfoods that are so naturally sweet, there’s no need to add fructose.
• This is a BIG ONE – protein. One of the most common questions vegans get is, “How do you get your protein?” Well, plants have protein and so does Vegan Shakeology – 16 grams per serving. Chocolate Vegan and Tropical Strawberry are crafted from an easy-to-assimilate blend of whole, plant-based proteins including sprouted brown rice, pea, sacha inchi, chia, flax, quinoa, amaranth, and spirulina. Not only do they offer 9 essential amino acids, but together they are a complete protein source with sufficiently high levels of lysine and methionine, two important amino acids that are often a limiting factor in plant-based diets. To put it simply – you don’t need 30 grams of protein with all the other nasty stuff, when you have 16 grams packed with the best stuff.
