I am a creature of habit. When I find a product I love, I am a loyal consumer. I have been using Bob’s Red Mill almond meal, coconut flour and brown rice flour since I moved to Seattle two years ago. When I had the opportunity to try out their new protein powders, I was super excited. I love that Bob’s Red Mill is already a brand I trust. Their protein powders are vegan, gluten free and loaded with probiotics.
I have experimented with these protein powders in smoothies, smoothie bowls and some cheat clean desserts. My best friend and her family were in town last week. We had three kids under the age of three. It was like a Christmas miracle when we had them all sleeping one afternoon. We decided to make the most in the zoo craziness to make no bake cookies. We talked through what ingredients we wanted in them and decided to use what I already had at the house for our recipe. Talk about nailing a recipe on the first try! I tried out the recipe measurements a few more times in more batches over the last week. Each time they tasted delicious. These cheat clean treats don’t last long at our house!

I used the Bob’s Mill chocolate protein powder in my no bake cookie recipe and have tried them all out. I personally think the vanilla and chocolate are by far the best flavors! I actually like those two powders just mixed with almond milk after a workout. The vanilla tastes like a cake!! I am giving away a 16 oz Bob’s Red Mill protein powder to one lucky reader. The winner be allowed to pick their flavor of choice. Good Luck!!

These are so good! Can’t wait to try them again!! Need to get some Bob’s Red Mill!
Try the vanilla flavor!! Let me know if you come up with a good recipe for a cheat clean dessert with that flavor!
I feel blessed to have come across this post, I feel like I am on a never-ending journey of trying to find the perfect GF, Vegan, and Soy-free protein powder. I’ve come across a MLM I’m sure we all know about, but considering I’m 98% sure I won’t have a job when I get back home, the price isn’t in our budget.
I had NO idea Bob’s made protein powder – and when I saw and read the ingredients, and found out they were vegan, GF, and SF, I was more excited than a sane person should be. Thank you for sharing this <3
I’m glad you found me!!! Don’t forget to use the monthly coupon for the protein powders!!! I like drinking the vanilla and chocolate just with almond milk…sooooo good!!!
