For an egg, soy, nut, legume, grain, and dairy-free protein in your smoothies, try adding SunFlour*! Processed protein isolates found in most smoothies are devoid of many of the nutrients your body needs and some use chemicals in their processing to remove (isolate) the protein from the food!
SunFlour is a natural, whole food that is cold milled and the protein is not isolated from the rest of the great stuff in the seeds. This means you get the right balance of macronutrients (protein, healthy fat, fiber, complex carbs) and many essential to health micronutrients in a meal!
Pumpkin Smoothie

1/4 cup pumpkin puree
3/4 cup non-dairy milk (almond, coconut, rice, etc)

1/4 tsp vanilla
Optional: add 1/2 frozen banana to thicken
Shave organic dark chocolate on top
Blueberry (Chocolate) SunPower Smoothie
Blend:
1/3 cup frozen blueberries
1/3 cup SunFlour*
1 cup water or rice milk (or other non-dairy milk)
1/2 cup spinach
1 Tbsp sunflower seed butter (or nut butter)
Optional: 1 scoop Nanogreens green food powder
*if you like you smoothies thicker, reduce the liquid and add ice. For a chocolatey taste, follow the recipe above and add 1 Tbsp cocoa powder.
*We do not recommend eating SunFlour raw. While it is unlikely to be an issue for most people, those with lower immunity may have a problem with even low levels of naturally ocurring bacteria that would normally be killed with the baking process. To use SunFlour in foods that are not baked (like smoothies), we recommend baking the SunFlour on a cookie sheet at 165 degrees for 10+ minutes and then adding to the smoothie once cooled.
