This vegan chocolate peanut butter protein shake is a creamy and delicious breakfast loaded with protein and yumminess! Fry the eggs right in the skillet or leave them out depending on your needs. Perfect for breakfast, as a snack, or even for dinner when you are short on time (or protein!)

A vegan protein shake is an essential part of my morning routine. I make a lot of decisions throughout the day and get decision fatigue. By having the same thing to eat for breakfast every single day, I remove one of these decisions, making my life more efficient.

Why a vegan protein shake?

As a wildlife biologist, I innately care wildlife and therefore eat vegan as this diet has the lowest environmental impact (for more on this topic, read “5 Easy Changes to Your Diet to Help the Planet.”

It’s also the diet that agrees with me the most. When my health problems were at their worst, I tried every diet out there to see if it would help. For most of my life, I avoided meat and I thought maybe that could be a factor. However, it made no difference. In fact, I felt worse and gained weight on keto and paleo. Vegan makes me happiest!

Why you'll love this vegan chocolate peanut butter protein shake

It’s honestly delicious – I eat this every day and I look forward to it after my workouts. It reminds me of Wendy’s frosties.
Jam packed full of protein – I now use Vega Sport protein and I get 30 grams in just one drink.
It’s filling – it keeps me full for hours so I don’t have to worry about what to eat until later on
It’s EASY – it only takes me a few minutes to make. And since I eat it every day, I never need to think about what to eat for breakfast

Why Vega One?

I’ve tried A LOT of protein powders and Vega One is my favorite by far. There are several reasons for I love this protein powder and brand:

It tastes great.
It is gluten-free.
It is soy-free.
Vega is a certified B corporation (meaning they put people and the environment over profits).
They use sustainable cocoa.
They use sustainable palm oil (certified by the Roundtable for Sustainable Palm Oil).

OK, now that we all agree that being vegan and Vega are awesome, let me share with you my super easy Vega One vegan chocolate peanut butter protein shake recipe:
