Mocha Cherry Maca Protein Shake

I’ve been just a little obsessed with protein shakes lately. Ok, I’m pretty much always obsessed with them. If you haven’t gathered it already, I love coming up with creative smoothies recipes with flavor combos as unique as possible. However, I also like to use healthy ingredients I have on hand while putting a fun spin on the recipes. This high-in-protein shake happens to feature Mushroom Matrix, as another part of my recipe series this week that includes their Fit Matrix. Check out my original review of their product if you’re curious about the benefits of mushroom powders. Otherwise, keep reading on for this fun and fabulous recipe! Continue reading →

Have you Heard? Mushrooms are all the rage in 2015! Literally, they’re making their way onto the list of superfoods to start incorporating into your diet this year. That’s one of the many reasons I’m so excited to bring to you my latest review of a company I recently discovered. Mushroom Matrix makes a line of powders and more that are super easy to add into any drink or smoothie to start reaping the benefits of different kinds of mushrooms. This company grows the certified organic mushrooms, processes and packages them into powders that you can buy online and try for yourself! Their products are all gluten-free, raw, vegan, kosher, and grown right in the state of California. Continue reading →

Tahini Espresso Protein Shake

As promised, here is the first of a few recipes I will be featuring using Mushroom Matrix’s Fit. This protein shake happens to include a few of my favorite brands and flavors all together in one delicious (and totally healthy) post-workout shake. Who would’ve thought that things like tahini, coffee, pears, bananas and mushroom powder would go together? I wouldn’t have at first but trust me, this was one extremely happy accident that I discovered. I even boosted it with some Growing Naturals Vanilla Blast rice protein, so this entire smoothie has almost 30g of plant-based protein. The added Mushroom Matrix makes it complete with an added boost of immunity, while helping fight fatigue and increase your fitness performance. You don’t even have to drink this shake after a workout, but I can promise that it’s a super satisfying treat to have after your morning gym session or run outside. Let’s face it, we all want to get in more exercise now that the New Year is upon us. This decadent shake makes it all worth it! Continue reading →
