Have you tried Manitoba Harvest's new Hemp Yeah! protein powder yet? It's certified organic, and vegan. With every serving you get 20 grams of protein and 3 grams of fiber.
I love using protein powder in smoothies and juices, and just recently I started adding it to recipes. I tried it out in these blueberry muffins so I could have a healthy snack after lunch to satisfy my sugar cravings. These muffins are also vegan, gluten, and refined sugar free. No guilt here!
